INTRODUCTION 

This book is written under inspiration of my mother 
and Benjamin Franklin Burke, M. D. I dedicate the 
book to them and to my husband and daughter. These 
lessons and the novel are reports of true experiences 
of my invisible helpers and of my investigations in the 
great soul world. My experience will prove our glori- 
ous resurrection. I write this book to help make the 
world more beautiful. These lessons will teach you 
how to get in rapport with God and His Holy Angels. 
Dr. B. F. Burke, who has lived in Mars twenty-four 
years, was a graduate of Cooper College. This gentle- 
man was the soul of honor on earth. I know he is on 
a very high plane. So is my angel mother. They have 
given up their lives to missionary work and hard study. 
They are respected among a host of angels. They 
were honest, good, sincere Christians here. My mother 
and Dr. Burke have the reputation of being the most 
perfect souls in Mars. I know it is a fact, that is the 
reason I can comfort others by giving this truth to the 
world. I was born a prophetess and psychic. When 
young I would get the future by dreams. After the 
wonderful phychic Mrs. Augusta Vail developed me 
I could give readings by mental telepathy, psychom- 
etry or clairvoyance. To practice the Golden Rule and 
do good is my religion. Most of the people in my 
novel have been dead for years. Angels have asked 
me many times to give these facts to a discouraged, 
war-stricken world. May this book be a light that w T ill 
shine in a world of darkness and bloodshed. May it 
help establish universal peace, love, prosperity, indus- 
try and harmony. I would give my life to see this ac- 
complished, as I love humanity with all my soul. We 
all belong to God and are a part of Him, hence we are 
divine. Our mind is that which loves, thinks and 
lives forever. Soul and mind are the same. 



Obsession and Its Cure. 

These lessons are to help shed some light on the 
unseen world, and to teach my readers how to avoid 
getting in rapport with wicked, earth-bound spirits. 
The book is to help you to reach Heaven. Death does 
not change our individuality. Our forms alone are 
changed from old age to youth and happiness, if we are 
good ; then this mortal puts on immortality. If we 
die in sin and ignorance we remain ignorant and sinful 
after death. We can only progress by pure thoughts, 
hard study and love in any planet. It is knowledge 
that lifts us up, ignorance pulls us down. I know that 
wicked, ignorant, earth-bound demons come back to 
obsess innocent men and women. Habits cling to us 
after death. It pays us to form good habits now. I 
have known some of the finest psychics in the world 
to be obsessed by dark, cruel, lazy spirits. A dear, 
good Christian friend of mine had a sad experience 
with low demons whom we will call Lena, Bill, Al and 
their folks. Al's people lied to cover up his crimes. 
Al is lazy and has the appearance of a madman ; his 
wicked thoughts and crimes keep him ill and insane ; 
his laziness and deception keep him and his father poor 
and unpopular. Bill and Al often try to harm pure, 
helpless dying women or girls to make white slaves of 
them, even after death. They want to drift with the 
tide and keep up their old habits. Angels will not per- 
mit them to wrong pure, sweet girls as they did while 
living on earth. Their sins were not punished on 
earth, but now they must suffer for them. They de- 
ceived the public and pretended to be good. They 
drank, lied, robbed and wronged good honest young 
women. They were very cunning and deceitful in all 
their wicked, heartless crimes, and they retain the 
same individuality now. Lena, Bill and Al are too 
weak and lazy to change their thoughts, hence they are 
still in darkness and oblivion ; they are living in Pur- 
gatory in filth and poverty. Women fear and hate 
them, men never speak to them. No woman is 



safe in their company. Disobedience to God's 
law has caused their poverty and insanity. Once 
Al had taken money from a woman to entice pure 
young girls on earth to a life of shame and suffering 
so that he could enjoy their hard-earned blood money. 
God forbid that we should ever wrong a soul. My 
invisible helpers can cast out demons and heal those 
that suffer. Sensitives, you must let wicked spirits 
alone unless you can help them, for they will cling to 
you and drag you down, if you do as they do. I am 
glad I have helped some out of darkness and despair. 
Lena and the Harris demons have hearts of stone ; 
they are too lazy to help themselves ; they have refused 
work and help from others. On January 8, 1917, these 
fiends tried to break up our class in psychology by 
lying to my pupils. I saw William James and Dr. B. 
F. Burke drive them out. As soon as they left, we 
received truth and names from our invisible loved ones. 
Jack London and B. F. Mills came with Daisy and my 
mother. They encouraged me to go on with my work. 
William Stead and Julia, his spirit mate, often come 
to help me and cheer me on. God bless their dear 
souls. Words cannot express how I love these angels 
of light and beauty. I would not take a million for 
my psychic powers. It is such a sweet comfort to 
hear angels whispering softly in my ear. I live for 
God and the angel world. My mission on earth is to 
do good, and cast out evil spirits in the name of Jesus 
and His Saints. I can teach others to detect good 
spirits from bad ones. I am in ecstasy as soon as I 
am in harmony with angels. I earnestly pray to God 
that I can give as much happiness to others as I have 
received from the angel world. With God's help, I 
will be kind and sweet to all I meet. I am here to love 
people and help them on their way. Those that live 
in the slums are my own kindred. 

I keep demons away by prayer and fasting. I have 
learned how to make the conditions for my mother and 
other angels to come. I know my poor friend's ter- 



rible suffering is about over in that direction. She or 
I never wronged Lena or these low Harris men, but 
they have done so to us. They are in darkness now 
from constant drinking and adultery committed on 
earth. They try to continue the same life over there. 
Death does not change our desires or disposition in 
the least. Habit clings to us. Now is the time to 
form good habits. We make our future conditions in 
this world. The Harris boys' minds are weaker than 
animals on this plane, for Bill and Al continue to lie 
and impersonate my loved ones in Heaven. Their 
wicked, guilty consciences make their faces ugly and 
their lives miserable. I have developed for so long a 
time that my mind is like a telephone receiver. I hear 
songs and classical music on higher planes. I sense suf- 
fering and ignorance on lower planes. Purgatory is the 
first plane, Earth the second, Mars third, Venus fourth, 
etc. Our mental development takes us to these dif- 
ferent planes after our transition. Good thoughts and 
education, not money or sin, take us onward and up- 
ward. It pays us well to think perfect thoughts now, 
not tomorrow. Live beautifully today. Do good and 
help make the world more beautiful. Any one that 
will not help in this war and darkness is a coward 
and a shirk. Work hard to crush out poverty, sin, 
white-slavery, ignorance, drunkenness, hate, war and 
selfishness. If we follow the Golden Rule and live 
perfect lives here, there will be no demons or darkness 
after death. Dr. Burke or my self have never wronged 
these wicked Harris men or Lena (he never knew 
them), and they blackmail us for his wealth; they are 
lazy and envy him. Poverty exists where there is sin 
and ignorance. On July 4, 1916, Al and Bill showed 
my friend a huge yellow and green snake and threw 
it on her back, after swearing at her and insulting her 
shamefully. The language was too coarse and too 
terrible to repeat. In her dreams, Bill and Lena tor- 
tured her constantly. For days they cruelly obsessed 
her. One day they would hypnotize her to think that 



she was alone in the world forever suffering eternal 
pain and sorrow. The next day she was insulted and 
beaten, then burned with hot irons. They threw poi- 
sonous snakes on her that seemed real and caused her 
to faint with fear. Satan is an angel compared to 
these Harris fiends and their deceitful companion, 
Lena. They were low, hardened demons and insane 
fiends. Their faces were ugly and old, their eyes wild 
and glassy. Al pulled out all his eyelashes. People 
never spoke to or thought of them, so they were lonely 
and despondent in awful darkness. They were eager 
to fight even among themselves. Ignorance or illness 
causes obsession. 

Demoniacal possession is a scientific ancient and 
modern fact. The best way to get rid of evil spirits 
is never to think of them and keep very busy and 
cheerful. Sometimes a prayer in the name of Jesus 
and your angels, with a command to depart forever, 
will effect exorcism. In Purgatory and in this world 
the good and bad mingle together. As soon as the 
soul is developed and just as soon as we can read each 
other's thoughts, then there is a parting of the ways. 
I have heard very high angels say that Al would be 
insane many years yet. By my clairvoyance I find 
many helpless souls in darkness and sin. Their con- 
ditions are terrible. Sin in any form never pays. I 
know there are souls in Purgatory paying the penalty 
of former crimes. I have learned to deliver innocent 
sensitives here or anywhere of demoniacal possession. 
Often, prayer, diet and good pure thoughts will drive it 
away. Keep busy and in perfect health. 

I have often heard Al's obscene language by mental 
telepathy or thought transference. It was too vile to 
repeat. I heard him tell Kate Burke, a sweet saint, 
that he would torment her forever, then beg her friends 
for money. I hate to hear or see these insane demons ; 
I see them and cannot help myself. I love to see my 
invisible friends. Our unjust laws send these poor, 
undeveloped souls over there before they are prepared 



to die. Often they return, after being executed, to do 
more harm than ever. Capital punishment is a crime. 
A very wicked person is a very ill person ; he should 
never be abused, but coaxed to work on our prison 
farms. Every prison should have a school and 
library. The prisoners should be taught music 
and every branch of study. All evil spirits should 
be educated and treated kindly if they show 
the least desire to do what is right. I have seen Al 
stagger and fall. This is because he was a dope fiend 
and drunkard. His father was drunk most of the time 
a year previous to his birth. Children should have a 
pre-natal education. Babes in other worlds have that 
birthright. Angels work like busy bees for perfection ; 
so should we. Honest missionary work of any kind 
is noble. We should encourage good workers. Yet 
these Harris fiends did all in their power to prevent 
the best psychic in the world from doing a great work. 
Kate Burke was a devoted Christian psychic, as pure 
and innocent as a child. She and other saints have 
been abused and shamefully persecuted by the Harris 
demons. Death tears the midnight mask from their 
faces ; their aura reveal their dark past. After death 
we cannot get away from our past; our sins cling to 
us like germs to a leper and infect our aura. I am 
working to develop a perfect character and radiant 
aura so that I can go to my mother and other loved 
ones at death. 

I never saw a medium in all my life that was not 
obsessed by some ignorant or insane entity ; that is 
why I am doing all in my power for universal educa- 
tion. In my psychological classes I develop the mind 
so that my pupils can get in tune with Infinite Intelli- 
gence. It is heaven to be in rapport with God and His 
holy angels. Kate Burke was one of the most perfect 
spiritual missionaries I ever knew. She was a mar- 
velous psychic. Yet these Harris demons abused and 
insulted her daily for ten years. They did all in their 
power to ruin her and they influenced others against 



her. In spite of these terrible persecutions, she kept in 
perfect condition and proved to thousands that there is 
no death, and that mind can overcome obsession, 
ignorance and sin. I know ignorance is a terrible 
thing that chains the soul in darkness and despair. 
It is a crime not to cultivate the mind. We must study 
and work here or live in poverty and darkness after 
death, until we progress out of that state. I saw 
Jennie Glass in my room, about four years after we 
buried her. I saw her cry because her son 
went to war and was surprised that such a sweet 
angel could suffer. After death our departed love us 
more than ever. In 1916 my soul floated again to 
Mars. I saw peach and almond trees in bloom. It 
was springtime and the country was a fairyland of 
beauty. In mars I found great wealth and gallantry 
among the Burke brothers. Ladies admired their 
chivalry. I am glad angels are extremely polite and 
Christlike. May God protect us from such demons as 
the Harris fiends as we pass on to Heaven. Now is 
the time to prepare our souls for a higher plane. The 
most important thing in life is to prepare the soul for 
death. We are all architects building future con- 
ditions. Now is the time to build up a good founda- 
tion. I know Lena Bill and Al Harris obsessed Mrs. 
Burke by hypnotism for years and tortured her men- 
tally. She was a ivonderful psychic and prophetess. 
Long ago at her private seances the table would move 
and answer our questions intelligently. She would 
foretell future events correctly. I saw a bee and a 
butterfly materialize on the table. I heard a song 
from her angels. I saw a man's arm and my mother's 
face materialize. Soon as the war broke out in Europe 
she said the allies would win. Her invisible helpers 
showed her beautiful poetry written in the air and 
bright lights in the night. The Harris fiends prevented 
her from being the greatest psychic in the world. These 
evil spirits used to insult and abuse this pure girl 
shamefully. They caused her great sorrow by im- 

9 



personating her 'loved ones. No good person could 
realize their sly, cunning deception. I have seen Al 
crawl on the ground, too weak to stand alone. It is 
Divine justice, for he and Bill constantly hinder good 
sensitives from doing missionary work. They are now 
reaping the harvest of their awful crimes. Never live 
as they did. Never make the conditions for them to 
be happy near you. The best cure for obsession is to 
keep them out of your thoughts entirely. Keep cheer- 
ful ; fasting and prayer will keep demons away. I cast 
out devils by prayer and science. I heal many by the 
same Divine law. I know it is ignorance to be ill or 
poor. God has given plenty for all. The greatest good 
we can do is to teach industry and cheerfulness. I love 
to help comfort those that suffer by proving to them 
there is no death or separation from loved ones. 
If you wish to attract your own to you, think of them. 
Thoughts are things. The power of thoughts is like 
magic. Good thoughts build up the soul and body; 
w r icked, cruel thoughts will tear it down. "As one 
thinketh, so is he," applies to health, harmony, love 
and wealth. "None but the pure in heart shall see 
God." If you wish to make money or win success, 
think and plan out your life work, then never 
deviate from those plans. In time, prayer and 
hard work will bring success in life. Money comes 
from doing the very best you can. Make your life 
beautiful ioday. Live as if you would die tomorrow. 
Make most of every opportunity. Of course, success 
means hard work — rightly applied — for prayer without 
work is in vain. All work is beautiful. No one should 
ever retire from work that they love. Folks past sev- 
enty should be paid one-half wages for manual labor, 
full wages for mental work, as the educated mind is 
stronger in old age. I love to work. All normal 
people do. Now is the time to work, because God 
needs us to be missionaries. I long to help lift the 
world above war, hate, sin and selfishness. Desert 
the cruel army for quiet, peaceful farm and home 

10 



life. Leave the army at once so you can save your 
precious lives. .We must preserve the noble white 
race. "Thou shalt not Icillv" In refusing to murder 
our brother, we objsy God. - It, is our duty to plan and 
vote for universal peace' then demand it at once. I 
see clairvoyantly through this awful darkness a wel- 
comed new light penetrating the night. The dawn of 
a glorious new scientific religion is shedding its light. 
When each dear soul has had a glimpse of Heaven, as 
I have, and heard the'angels whisper facts to them and 
know there is no death, then hate and war will be done 
away with. The world needs love for each other. Give 
to those that suffer your sincere love from the very 
depths of your beautiful Christlike soul. May we love 
as they do in stars above. Sincere love for others, is 
sublime. The reward of a perfect love for humanity, 
is Heaven. God is love. Love is an inspiration that 
leads us to Him. 

Lessons on Scientific Healing 

I heal through Dr. B. F. Burke, who gets his power 
from God. I cure people by prayer, suggestion and 
magnetism from my hands. I sent a red rose that I 
magnetised to a very sick boy. They placed it on his 
chest. He was then cured by absent treatment. I 
build up the body and mind through piy invisible 
doctor's scientific methods. The mini is divine and 
must be kept strong and in perfect condition, and so 
must the body. We should keep strong, young, cheer- 
ful and slender. It is our duty to live hygienically and 
economically at all times. We eat too much and wear 
too many clothes. Children should have fresh nour- 
ishing food morning and evening. Adults, only one 
meal a day at noon, with a pint of pure water every 
morning and night. Sleep out of doors, then you will 
not need so much to eat. Fresh air, sunshine, pure 
water and work make the high cost of living much 
lower. If taxes and food were reduced one-half it 
would help prevent war. A few days ago I was ill 

11 



and discouraged. Dr. Burke and my mother told funny 
jokes all night; they kept me laughing constantly. 
Next day I was perfectly well and happy again. In 
order to heal another we must bury our sorrow, then 
give cheerful suggestion. Send out sunny, inspiring 
thoughts at all times to others. Wicked or depressed 
thoughts make you ill or insane. Prayer and noble 
thoughts will keep you well if you keep the laws of 
hygiene. What w r e eat builds the body ; what we do 
and think builds the soul. "As one thinketh, so is he. ,, 

Smile and pray befqre you go to sleep. At sunrise 
welcome your angels with a smile and good thoughts. 
Keep sweet and cheerful under all conditions. Per- 
fect happiness and love is health and wealth. Do all 
within your power to make your soul more beautiful. 
God dwells within our souls, and we are part of the 
whole. Our thoughts of today make our tomorrow. 
In order to retain your youth and health after forty, 
eat less, take a daily bath, study more, and work faster. 
Beautiful thoughts make a pretty face. Ladies should 
steam their faces twice a week. After taking off the 
hot compresses, rub the face with ice, then massage 
with cold cream. Keep slender by housework and diet. 
The- most nourishing foods are nuts, fruit, cream, raw 
vegetables. It ruins a wife's beauty to cook much 
and ruins her husband's health. RaAv eggs beaten 
well, served with rich pure cream, is a dainty, nourish- 
ing dessert. This builds up the system. A variety of 
food is essential to keep one in perfect health. Eat slow- 
ly and enjoy your meals. Never w^orry or get angry; 
it hinders digestion and makes wrinkles. Worry and 
over work causes gray hair. Hard study or any mental 
work, if enjoyed, makes the hair heavy and luxuriant. 
Make a habit of cheerfulness, if you wish to be attract- 
ive and young. Forget your age by keeping very busy 
and happy. Suggest to yourself that you are only 
sixteen in looks. Light farming in God's glorious sun- 
shine will keep you in perfect health, if you diet and 
study good books. Music inspires one and helps to 

. 12 



keep you in perfect health. Melody makes the condi- 
tion for harmony and romance. We need both in this 
practical, selfish, ignorant world. Hypnotism as a 
therapeutic resource should never be used until after 
all other remedies have failed. The mind must have 
perfect liberty in order to develop the soul. It is our 
duty to do away with all reform schools, insane asy- 
lums and prisons. The sooner the world is set free, 
and we place the utmost confidence in humanity, the 
greater and more beautiful it will be. 

How young and radiant the people in Mars looked 
to me. I noticed electricity was used in every con- 
ceivable form in Mars. I saw an organ attached to 
a battery. Mama gave me a wonderful treatment by 
applying musical electricity to my hair and form. Elec- 
tricity is life, and is used in Mars instead of drugs. 
What a piece of work is man ! How grand ! How 
noble in character ! He has the faculty to reason. In 
form, how beautiful; in thought and action, how like 
an angel ! How like a God after his transmission from 
Earth to Mars. The people in Mars are grand, radiant 
with life and energy. Great minds have constructed 
useful canals all over Mars and other worlds. Dr. 
Burke tells me we must have canals some day, and our 
large rivers should have small canals for irrigation. In 
order to advance we must keep the ten command- 
ments and practice the following lines : 

I will be true, pure and cheerful. I will smile while 
I work. I will study and gain health, strength, friends 
and success. I will work and pray. I will be con- 
tented and happy now, knowing there is no death. I 
will practice the Golden Rule. 

These are elevating thoughts that keep you young 
and happy and build your health and mind up. In 
Mars, talent expressed is wealth. They worship God 
and love Jesus. So do I, too, admire His perfect mind 
and powerful, noble thoughts. He controls the atoms 
of space. Our Lord's mind brought substance out of 
ether and fed hundreds bread and fish. Dr. Burke and 

13 



my mother love Him more than ever. At the wed- 
ding feast He made the sparkling waters blush and 
materialized unfermented wine, and money out from 
the mouth of the fish. He knew the seas held a wealth 
of gold. He demonstrated the truth and proved 
"thoughts are things." He was a great healer and 
psychic. I love Him. I have often seen Dr. Burke 
materialize jewels and other things out of ether. He 
is a grand, noble Christian and a popular resident in 
Mars. Years ago he died in California. He wants to 
make the w T orld more beautiful through my pen and 
psychic powers. May God help me to work for Jesus 
and the angel world. 

Scientific Farming 
Please bear in mind, my dear readers, that my books 
are not referring to any living person or edifice on 
earth. This book is to comfort others. These lessons 
on farming are to alleviate poverty in our slums. My 
books are to make conditions better. Farming is de- 
lightful and should be encouraged in every way pos- 
sible for the general good of humanity. It is our duty 
to make it attractive, beautiful and profitable. Hard 
study and work prolong life and beauty. Mental work 
develops the soul and keeps us cheerful and useful. 
No one should neglect his education. Future farmers 
must be educated or fail to make an honest living. If 
you cannot own a farm, make a garden in the back 
yard. Call it a miniature farm, keep it in perfect con- 
dition for the sake of your health. To be happy, our 
homes should be attractive, beautiful and healthful, 
surrounded by a little garden of Eden. A lawn in 
front, fruit, flowers, vegetables and a few profitable 
chickens in the rear. Prosperity is the result of in- 
dustry and harmony. Save all seeds to exchange 
with your neighbors. Dry and can all fruit and vege- 
tables that you cannot sell. Boil the juice of grapes, 
oranges, lemons, limes and grapefruit for ten minutes, 
and can in well sterilized jars. This will keep for years 
and makes a very nutritious drink. It is a great econ- 

14 



omy to have grapes hanging from your veranda or 
portico in front, and your back fence covered with ber- 
ries. In this way you can save a little for taxes. Taxes 
should be one-half what they are now. Each man 
should own his home. All men should own the big 
trusts and corporations, and each work and share the 
profits alike. All w r orlds "belong to God and the full- 
ness thereof." We' His children, own an interest in 
the whole. Farming, without any education or recrea- 
tion, will bend the beautiful form and dwarf the mind. 
Love and variety are the soul of life. Homes should 
be builded on the highest and sunniest place on the 
farm, where it is dry and surrounded by pure air and 
sunshine. To be happy, we must have health. My 
invisible loved ones tell me there are happy homes, 
surrounded by wonderful farms, in all planets that can 
be cultivated. Anything that we need for health should 
be in reach of all (such as milk, grains, eggs, nuts, 
fruit, vegetables and salt). Some nations tax even the 
salt. That is cruel and unjust, for it causes blindness. 

Extensive canals flowing through our land would 
save irrigation. Where there is fog, very little water 
is required for farming. Keep the surface of the soil 
well plowed, and free from weeds and stones. Until 
we are advanced enough to own canals, as they do in 
Mars, we can irrigate by making small trenches 
through each row. Grapes, figs, cactus, olives, apples, 
beans, etc., should be planted on the hillside or waste 
land that cannot be used for grain or vegetables and 
nuts. These do not need irrigation after the first year. 
Irrigate at twilight, never in the sunshine. Plan all 
your work. Intelligent preparation in anything brings 
success. Plan for a bountiful harvest. If you cannot 
sell your harvest, trade, exchange things. Our gold 
and silver should be made into useful things ; it is a 
waste of time to make it into money. Use checks or 
scrip to represent credit for so much goods. We 
need a grand exchange bureau in every town. In this 
terrible war age nothing should be wasted. We need 

15 



more farmers and schools. Now is the time to be God- 
like, to help the world out of the Gethsemane of de- 
spair and poverty., caused by selfishness and war. We 
could have Heaven on earth if each one of us should 
follow in the golden footprints of Christ and His holy 
angels. Earth could be farmed more extensively if 
we had canals in the deserts where the heat is intense. 
Canals cause rain, cool the atmosphere and keep the 
ocean from wearing away the valuable land. There 
are no waves on the sea in Mars ; canals take them off. 
Canals should be very long and narrow ; they have 
waves. The gates must be perfect and made of steel. 
Iron would rust and so drown us all. Farming is beau- 
tiful and very profitable, for it brings health, wealth 
and happiness to those who love it. If land is poor, 
keep stock and chickens on it for a year or so to rest 
it. Farmers in Mars are radiant with youth and en- 
ergy. We should be the same. Farming is the foun- 
dation of prosperity. Build little bird cotes among 
your vines and trees ; their inmates are dainty little 
helpers that we could not live without. I have seen 
tiny yellow canary birds in Mars about the size of my 
little finger, and a large green parrot I once owned. I 
had several pet canary birds die. A few months later I 
saw them clairvoyantly, alone in my home. I heard 
my parrot sing while my spiritual body was traveling 
in Mars. He laughed and talked the same there as 
I taught him on earth. His memory had improved. I 
understood all he sang. I enjoyed hearing him laugh 
once again. If God has resurrected my pet animals, 
I know He will take us home to Heaven some day. 
I saw Dr. B. F. Burke driving a dark horse, in a buggy 
w r ith his little adopted child, Kate Burke. She was a 
pretty little curly-headed blonde that died previous to 
her birth into this world. She is a little angel mes- 
senger of love that often helps me give tests. Her 
aunt, Mrs. K. Burke, who was a nurse on earth, comes 
with her to help me. I saw Dr. Burke and the child 
drive on and on through rich farm lands. I knew he 

16 



could float, and wondered how he could enjoy that 
horse. I suppose it was because he loved horses, as 
most men do. Dr. Burke told me clairvoyantly that 
Mars was highly cultivated along the canals. I will 
be glad when God calls me to that marvelous country 
of love and liberty. Farmers are divine and kind ; 
they till the sod and live near to God. 

We should eat nuts and fruit ; they are far more 
wholesome than bread. Tobacco is good to kill germs 
and people. It is poison to hvimanity. I want 
all farmers to be rich. Fresh slack lime mixed 
well with the soil will counteract the acid in the soil 
which makes buds turn black and fall off. If trees 
shed their flowers when buds, there will be no fruit. 
An antidote for fungus diseases is scalicide lime mixed 
with a little sulphur, stirred into the soil when dry. 
Mix all seeds with a little sulphur, ashes or red pepper 
when you plant them, so ants or bugs will not eat 
them. Plant castor beans ; most rodents hate them. 
Farming is beautiful and worth doing well. Plants 
and trees with tender roots should be planted in pails 
or boxes, then transplanted after the roots get strong 
and tough. Try not to disturb the roots when trans- 
planting". Plant blue grass, clover and spineless cacti 
for your stock and chickens. The fruit of all cacti is 
splendid for the table. Housework, farming, swim- 
ming and dancing are the kind of physical culture we 
need. After all, honest work is only a great pleasure 
that makes us beautiful and young. Work is a bless- 
ing we all need to make us happy and rich. The angels 
are pleading for workers in the midst of this heartless 
war, which has caused so much sorrow and poverty. 
The best w r ay out of this Trouble is to settle all inter- 
national trouble by arbitration. Each country and 
church should start a petition at once for universal 
peace. We must have a new religion, universal scien- 
tific farming and education to do away with war and 
hate. Teach your children to shun war, not to kill, 
but to love mankind. Nations should visit and trade 
v 

X7 



with each other and enjoy each other. I love all na- 
tions, for I claim all people as my brothers and sisters. 
I love them all. We are all one family. We belong 
to each other. 

Psychical Research 

I have had some remarkable experiences in thought 
transference. Telepathic impressions are conveyed 
from any planet to myself, if I am in perfect condition 
to sense them. It is only carrying on a conversation 
by thinking instead of talking. I have conversed with 
Mrs. Kate Burke in this manner. She told me of 
her suicide; her husband had married again and 
lost all track of her. He at once began to in- 
vestigate, for he loved her dearly. I have his letter 
stating that she had died here, as I received it from 
another world. We were surprised to hear of her 
death, as we thought maybe she was married again. 
She is now a radiant little angel that has given me 
many facts from the spirit world. Last summer I told 
my friend, Mrs. Clark, her mother would die in three 
days, and she did. Before Mayor Sebastian's election 
I told his wife he woujd be mayor, and he was elected, 
as I had predicted to others in public. My 
angels told me he w r as a grand, good man. By inter- 
planetary communication I found out he and his beau- 
tiful wife are twin souls. A strange fact, for not one 
man in a thousand is fortunate enough to get the one 
God made for him in this world. That is why we have 
so many divorces. Two years ago I predicted the 
death of a great ruler in 1916. I saw him clairvoyantly 
in a black uniform and knew I had seen the emblem of 
death. In 1916 the Emperor of Austria died. I saw 
later that the allies would win. I predicted that Wil- 
son would be re-elected in 1916. I wrote him to that 
effect a year before it happened. I have foretold for 
my friends thousands of facts that later came true, so 
they told me. 

18 



Dr. Burke has often told me the correct time. Often 
I would close my eyes and toss a new dollar behind 
me, and he would always tell me whether heads or 
tails was up. He tells me when I am going to get a 
letter and who it is from. He often tells me who will 
visit us tomorrow; it comes out just as he predicts. 
Twice I saw Dr. Burke play ball in Mars. The boys 
played much faster than they do here. If the ball hits 
them, and they are highly developed, it never hurts 
them. Nothing can mar the soul after it reaches a cer- 
tain state of development. Mind heals and is perfect. 
I know the body can suffer if ignorant, for I have seen 
the Harris fiends' legs and heads bruised and sore from 
being pounded after insulting pure young girls and 
married women. I fear Lena and her wicked com- 
panions, called Al and Bill in my novel. They are so 
very deceitful they will be dangerous for years to come. 
It is hard for lazy folks to form new habits. They 
don't want to reform. I have tried to reform them. 
On January 4, 1917, my soul visited Mars. I was in 
a massive house. I went into every room. In the 
barn I saw a tiny black and white shaggy dog not 
over seven inches long. I took him in my arms and 
played with him. I wish I had one just like him; 
he was a pet. I rode in a big airship, in Mars, that 
would seat twenty. The people feel like flesh and 
blood and look as we did at sixteen. They dearly 
love their wives and children. Love is all there is in 
any planet. Power and wealth are nothing if we are 
not loved. Love is divine, for God is Love. 

Psychical Research, Inspired Doctrines 
. By honest, sincere investigation for years I have 
proven by my clairvoyance and telepathy to thousands 
that there is no death. This evidence you will find in 
all my books and lessons. The moment you know 
there is no death you should be absolutely happy. I 
thank God for love and immortality. Soon as your 
psychic powers are developed you can draw wisdom 
from the very fountain of Infinite Intelligence by com- 

19 



municating with angels, as I do. The God within me, 
or my soul, has often traveled through space; the eyes 
of my soul have feasted on heavenly scenery. I have 
seen flowers, lakes, homes, farms and entities in other 
brighter worlds than this. I observed spiritual forms 
grow lighter and brighter as they gradually advanced 
toward Heaven. If a great psychic could see God, He 
would appear as light. I can develop any mind to 
communicate with angels. I teach the knowledge I 
have obtained from intelligent invisible scholars. These 
precious angels have gradually developed my clairvoy- 
ance and clairaudience to make the world more beau- 
tiful. To do good is a great pleasure to me. To see 
or hear angels, you must be calm and keep in perfect 
health by diet, prayer and concentration. We must 
keep cheerful and make proper conditions mentally to 
attract the saints. Idleness will often cause illness 
and obsession. We must economize in time in order 
to reach perfection. Cultivate the mind above all 
things. Great, powerful minds rule the universe with 
intelligent order. Remember, a rich mentality is 
greater than all the material wealth in the universe. 
Angels follow the Golden Rule, "Whatsoever ye would 
that others should do unto you, do ye also unto them." 
The Golden Rule means just to love one another. Sin- 
cere love is what the world needs most. 

I know God and His angels live and rule this great, 
stupendous universe with infinite intelligence. My 
mother and Dr. Burke told me our individuality is im- 
mortal. I thank God I can prove, under proper con- 
ditions, that intelligent communication with the so- 
called dead is a fact. I worship God with all my soul 
and being. I am happy when I do His will. We make 
our future happiness or unhappiness as we obey or 
disobey God's psychic laws. Our ignorance and sins 
punish us. Each thought or act will bring its reward, 
whether it is good or evil. The reward of love, edu- 
cation and industry is Heaven. The reward of sin and 
slothfulness is poverty and death. My religion is broad 

20 



and beautiful, and not antagonistic to any church. 
Deeds, not creeds, count. Dr. Burke has taught me that 
the subconscious mind is Divine. I can demonstrate 
truth by thought transference with Infinite Intelli- 
gence, not with ignorant demons. Enjoy life by devel- 
oping your psychic powers slowly and intelligently, 
for our mind takes us just where we belong after death. 
Enjoy this life, for some day we will all be angels in 
Heaven. Do all in your power to make the world 
more beautiful for others. Work hard to abolish every 
unjust law that causes innocent people to suffer as 
Jesus did. Life is a great struggle for the poor and 
sick, and too easy for the indolent and wicked. We 
should be eager missionaries hunting lost souls in 
darkness to give them love, light and food. Love is 
what these poor struggling souls need to encourage 
them to be perfect men and women. Dr. Burke, an 
archangel, has often said I would have been the great- 
est missionary and psychic in the world if these Harris 
fiends had not constantly lied and abused others and 
myself without any reason at all. 

If we practice this new religion, harmony and pros- 
perity will be the result. Hosts of angels are working 
in unison encircling the globe of sorrow. I sense their 
great love and sympathy for us. If the world would 
go into the silence at dawn, noon and twilight and 
concentrate for peace and love, soon war, hate and 
poverty would be abolished. If we could only realize 
the glories of universal love. Love is the most won- 
derful thing that exists in the universe. It is one of 
the mysterious secrets of immortality. Hate kills; 
love builds us up; it inspires us. Love in any form is 
sweet music to the soul. Love is a universal element 
that fills all space with life and happiness. It is part 
of God, and His most precious gift. I plead with you 
to love others enough to establish laws that will abol- 
ish prisons and build schools that will abolish saloons, 
fast houses, slums, and prosper operas, dancing, farm- 
ing and happy homes and children. It is our duty to 

21 



establish a few good new laws and abandon so many 
poor ones. Thousands of good people are in prison 
from ignorance of our complicated laws. All laws 
should be founded on the ten commandments. The 
Golden Rule, obeyed from every standpoint, is all the 
law an educated nation needs. Love as you wish to 
be loved, and no one will wrong you if they are normal. 
Prosperity for all will be the result. The secret of 
success is, firstly, right thinking, then doing the very 
best you can. If you are out of work, cheerfully apply 
for a position. Make a habit of smiling. Smile. The 
cornerstone of success is industry and cheerfulness. 
Thoughts are things that will build you up or break 
you down. Daily say mentally, "My mentality is ca- 
pable of great possibilities. I will practice diplomacy. 
I will cultivate confidence, energy and courage. I will 
spend less on clothes and food, so I can buy more 
books. I will develop music, poetry and all my talents. 
I will unfold my psychic powers. I will enjoy helping 
others more. My religion is from the angel world. 
My angels learn from archangels.'' By thought trans- 
ference I know the Bible is true. Please read 
St. Luke. Christ said to the thief on the cross, 
"Verily, I say unto thee, today shalt thou be with me 
in Paradise." This proves the thief was innocent. No 
one should be convicted on circumstantial evidence. I 
think one-half of the people that are killed by law are 
good and innocent. The law has no right to kill any 
one. It is a crime to kill by law or war. Very wicked 
men should be forced to work on prison farms. Pris- 
oners should be treated fairly. It is a terrible 
punishment to be deprived of liberty. In the 
next world we must make every wrong right. 
The honest beggar Lazarus went to Heaven ; 
the selfish, heartless rich man to Hell. Cultivate char- 
ity to all. Make life beautiful for all. Make your 
future life happy by doing good to others. They will 
return it some day when you need them most. Our 
angels know our thoughts. After Christ's great vic- 

22 



tory over death He came back even through the walls 
to his disciples to prove there is no death. By the 
same scientific law my mother and Dr. B. F. Burke 
come back to me. I heard him sing "Nearer My God 
to Thee ,, close to me. I have heard independent voices 
talk to me when all alone at home, and saw the speak- 
ers at the same time. I have many spirit pictures that 
are genuine. While my husband was sleeping at 
dawn I have seen genuine materialization, once of my 
mother's face, again of an arm, another time of Dr. 
Burke's full form. I felt his face and chest. He 
seemed like flesh and blood, yet I knew he had been 
dead over twenty years. I have seen him very often. 
I hear him and my mother talk every day. I often 
see lights that gradually diminish. 

Psychical Research Lessons 

To get facts from the soul world one must make the 
conditions by developing with an honest, good intelli- 
gent psychic. I get the truth and teach it to 
others. It is dangerous not to have a good scien- 
tific teacher along these lines. On August 25, 1916, 
my soul traveled to Mars again. I don't remember of 
floating, yet I know I was in Mars. I saw a lovely, 
smooth sea reflecting the golden light of a glorious 
sunset. There was not a wave on the vast body of 
water, not a ripple on its calm, brilliantly colored sur- 
face. On November 16, 1916, I heard Dr. B. F. Burke 
play an opera on his piano. The music was perfectly 
grand. Dr. Burke showed me some new three-story 
brick buildings in Mars. Almost all buildings there 
are of stone, cement or brick. The bricks were of a 
beautiful shade of bright pink. They bake them longer 
and they are much stronger than ours are. My in- 
visible companion said they used brick and a wonder- 
ful cement that looked like stone to save their valuable 
trees. We must do the same. The world needs trees, 
canals, and millions upon millions of industrious good 
farmers. Every soldier should be a happy farmer, 
enjoying the love of his wife and children. War must 

23 



be done away with entirely. Now is the time to work- 
hard and pray for universal peace and prosperity. My 
angels say all trouble could be settled by arbitration 
and higher education. There is no war in Mars. Why 
should men kill their dear, precious brothers whom 
the world needs so much? Away with war; it is all 
ignorant insanity. On August 30, 1916, I saw a lovely 
azure lake in Mars. Close to the lake was an elegant 
marble fountain near my future home. I have often 
seen my own home in Mars ; it is new, elegant and 
richly furnished. The knowledge of my future home 
and happiness makes me contented under all condi- 
tions. Rich or poor, I will be Christ-like and happy. 

On October 10, 1916, again my soul traveled to Mars. 
My invisible companion, Dr. Burke, took me to visit 
one of the department stores. The front was one pol- 
ished glass window, raised by machinery so that the 
workers could have plenty of pure air and sunshine. 
The helpers owned part of the store. Nothing was 
misrepresented. I was surprised at the rich, beautiful 
things I saw there. I saw perfect artificial flowers which 
they make to decorate their homes and gowns. They 
don't pick growing flowers there, as the flowers have 
souls. I saw pretty bouquets which the ladies wear at 
parties. Perfume in Mars is sweeter than ours, even 
if it is not manufactured from fresh flowers. I saw 
nosegays of a new red color, and a flower I never saw 
on earth. It looked like a red buttercup. Roses that 
looked as if just picked from some California garden, 
yet they were made of rubber and tinted all colors. 
The pink, white, yellow, blue and red buds were made 
up in dainty nosegays for pretty young girls to wear. 
I rode in a wonderful airship and automobile. Mor- 
tals invented them by thought-transference. Farmers 
raise all that we do and more. My mother tells me 
there are two children born to each couple, a boy and 
a girl who are twin souls. These children are perfect 
and are never parted. Husbands and wives are eternal 
companions and lovers there. I have seen horses, car- 

24 



riages, black and white cows, chickens, birds, swans 
on a lake, and perfect farms in Mars. Earth could look 
like Mars if it were highly cultivated. They love 
friends far more than money. Their hearts are over- 
flowing with love. The Martians are in constant com- 
munication with other worlds by mental wireless. We 
could in time get interplanetary communication estab- 
lished here if we take it up in our schools, or develop 
under a good psychic. In Mars there is no death, sin, 
poverty, old age, sorrow, war, crime, or universal igno- 
rance such as exist here. What I admired most in Mars 
was the love of twin souls ; they were so happy that 
they did all in their power to make others happy. Hus- 
bands courted and waited on their wives with pleasure. 
The longer twin souls are together, the more affection- 
ate they are to each other. It is often the opposite 
here. In public the ladies wore long, graceful sleeves 
like a glove without any fingers. The gloves are made 
from part of the dress goods. The gloves are taken off 
as soon as the wearer gets home. They wear gloves 
so they will not get the magnetism of gentlemen. 
They do not flirt on higher planes, as they are desper- 
ately in love with their spirit mates. Some of the girls 
wore perfect nosegays of lilies of the valley, mignon- 
ette, forget-me-nots and pink rosebuds mingled with 
delicate green ferns and peculiar new grasses that I 
never saw on earth. Most of the girls were once old 
women that lived in this world. I saw handsome 
dresses and dainty lingerie all trimmed in lace fit for 
the fairies to dance in. They wore dainty sandals and 
jewels ; their soft veils and laces were elegant. I dined 
with these Martians. They ate bread filled with nuts 
and cream and baked for hours. They served cream 
with pudding and apples. They only eat one small 
meal a day. On October 24, 1916, I saw a clear golden 
light about the size of a large pillow close to Dr. 
Burke's chest. It was bright and radiant. Mama and 
Alvin Bush show me wonderful lights and write words 
on the wall in gold for me. If I ask a question and see 

25 



a star in front of me, that means yes. I often hear 
raps when alone in my room. Doctor shows me lights 
most every day. I have heard singing close to my ear 
and at a distance. The music there is grander than 
any here. 

At camp meeting in 1915 I saw Christ's brilliant 
aura. It was silver and gold and azure. The lights 
were bright and perfect. I felt His holy presence and 
sensed His great love for me. I have been well and 
happy ever since. Ten years ago I went to Wiley, a 
good, honest spirit photographer. I had six sittings. 
I knew the ladies in the photograph at sight, but not 
the gentleman. I went to psychics for years. After 
seven years I found out that all the pictures were gen- 
uine. I got the names myself and sent to their rela- 
tives for their pictures. I compared them and found 
they were the same. I have proven many times 
that all the pictures were genuine. I have con- 
vinced hundreds of others by my clairvoyance 
that their dead returned and retained their individ- 
uality. Daily I have the pleasure of communicating 
with angels. I will be happy when they come to take 
me home. My death will be the most beautiful ad- 
venture of my life. I do not fear death ; it is beautiful. 
I look forward to it with great pleasure. I know there 
is no death. There is only wonderful, mysterious life. 
Glorious immortal life. 

One beautiful morning when I was awake there ap- 
peared soft gold and azure lights in my room, then 
diamonds and all kinds of brilliant stones floated before 
my eyes. When they disappeared I heard music from 
another world. The next morning I saw hundreds of 
perfect stars brilliantly sparkling in a dark blue sky. 
Again I heard Dr. Burke singing in a rich tenor voice 
close to my side. One evening I heard him play some 
very difficult classical music. I saw the piano. I heard 
my mother sing songs in Mars that she used to sing 
to me when she was on earth. I have long visits with 
her, and enjoy her more than ever. I have felt her 

26 



kiss me. She writes in ether in her own handwriting. 
It is such a comfort to see her young pretty face and 
little form. She comes to comfort and protect me. 
I thank God for her and my angel friends. I love my 
angel mother and invisible companions more than ever. 
It is a great pleasure to do good for their dear sakes. 
They inspire me to do God's will. 

Ten years ago I used to hear raps in answer to ques- 
tions. Later I have heard bands playing all kinds of 
music of other worlds. In Mars I have seen produc- 
tive farms, beautiful parks, canals with waves, temples, 
schools, homes, shops, a sanitarium where tiny babes 
are taken care of after being murdered by their igno- 
rant parents. It is a terrible crime to kill and causes 
angels a great deal of sorrow and work. At another 
time in Mars I saw a calm, clear sea at sunset. It was 
a glorious sight. Then I saw a small lake, cedar trees 
about as large as our big California redwoods. I have 
seen pianos, violins, organs, carpets, clothes, sandals, 
fruits, flowers and all kinds of books. The furniture 
is elegant in Mars. I have seen wonderful jewels. I 
held a large perfect diamond in my mouth to make 
sure it was real. Bear in mind, my form never leaves 
this world ; the soul or mind travels. Thank God, the 
mind has perfect liberty to soar through space (if well 
developed). Sometimes angels picture these wonderful 
things to me, clairvoyantly, when I am alone at home, 
The brighter the light, the better I see. Ten years 
ago I could see better in the dark. I have often fore- 
told that which would all come true months later 
exactly as I had predicted. That could not have been 
mind reading. Dr. B. F. Burke told me a few days 
after the war broke out in Europe, "The allies will 
win in the end." I know they will, for he is the soul 
of honor. I have heard Dr. Burke and my mother 
sweetly singing to me when alone. While my 
soul was traveling in space I saw wonderful 
new stars in the Milky Way that we cannot see from 
here. The stars are controlled by the power of many 

27 



minds thinking in love and harmony. War can be 
done away with by right thinking and living. Some 
time our spiritual bodies will be half electricity. The 
heavens are glowing in majesty and life. The air is 
effulgent with a variety of sweet-scented perfumes. 
Planets are floating in order and majesty in purple 
ether and look like a thousand jewels set in angels' 
diadems. The result of Infinite Intelligence has made 
the universe in so wonderful and beautiful a fashion 
that it makes my heart bleed to think our intelligent, 
noble brothers are killing each other in war. Selfish- 
ness in this awful bloody strife has turned men into 
insane brutes. After killing men by poison gases, an 
army is now throwing liquid fire at noble young white 
gentlemen. God w r ill punish them in the next world. 
1 hate war. There should be honor in everything, even 
in war. I think the result of this dreadful wicked war, 
from a psychological view, will bring about Socialism. 
In time there will be no crowned heads in Europe or 
in the world. One person is no better than another. 
No one has any right to abuse or rule another. Treat 
all as brothers. To avoid war, adhere strictly to the 
Golden Rule, even in thought. Treat all that suffer 
and live in this world as you would archangels, for 
Lazarus is a good example of the poor. Those whom 
you wrong or abuse may be rich in Heaven, while you 
suffer in darkness below. The result of this war will 
bring about polygamy, poverty and ignorance. If all 
men were as good, noble and benevolent as Henry 
Ford, there would be no war. God bless his soul. He 
did all he could for universal peace. He is one of the 
greatest men in the world. I would give my life cheer- 
fully for universal peace. Give me all the money 
squandered on saloons, tobacco and war, and I will 
educate every soul in the world and give every man 
a happy home all his own. Dr. Burke, my invisible 
helper, told me that in one hundred years from now 
half of the white girls would marry Indians and dark 
men. This war will bring on a black race. God forbid 

28 



that the white race should be exterminated. I love 
all people here. It nearly kills me to see our white 
people killed off and murdered without any reason. 
We should help these dear souls at once. The greedy, 
cruel, selfish instigators of war must answer and suffer 
for this wholesale murder. No one can escape punish- 
ment. At night my soul often travels to the war zone. 
The subconscious mind cannot lie. To my great sor- 
row I see pure girls abused and children crying for 
bread. I see men insane from fear and noise, and 
others praying for death. I beg the soldiers to leave 
the cruel, damp, filthy trenches, elope with their wives 
and sweethearts and fly to another country at once. 
Europe has no other cause for war except greed. Let 
the big hogs fight it out alone. No man should be 
forced to kill. After the war the rulers will not give 
the poor soldiers an inch of the land which they fought 
for. My soul took possession of another's form, so I 
could find out the truth concerning this awful war. 
Not half of the facts are published. I said : "Plan a 
great strike. You have the arms. Capture some war- 
ships, then sail on and on for life and liberty. If you 
don't, the blacks will rule in time. Now is the time 
to act quickly and intelligently. I would rather be 
shot down for desertion than kill a brother. There is 
no honor in war. We harm ourselves if we kill others, 
as we need every one. How wicked to kill those whom 
we should love and enjoy. War v brings polygamy, 
the evil which all women hate. God made only one 
woman for every man, and it is not man's nature to 
love two women, unless he becomes depraved or crazy. 
If he owns more than one wife, he soon becomes a 
lazy beast without a soul. God only made one Eve 
for Adam. Each man has another half somewhere. 
The law of attraction will draw that certain person to 
you sometime. Angels are man and wife in Heaven. 
For years I have known from invisible helpers 
that the philosophy of spirit mates is a scientific fact. 
Dr. B. F. Burke has taught me how to tell spirit mates 

29 



by science and clairvoyance. Our object is to locate 
your other half so as to make you happy. Soul-mate 
germs are from God, or a part of the dual God — Mother 
and Infinite Father. It is a scientific fact that God is 
dual or He would not be immortal. There must be 
the negative and positive in all life. 

Before birth, soul-mate germs resemble little oval 
balls of radium. Souls are partly composed of light ; 
at least the soul germs are encased in light, blended 
as one by magnetism. God sends these soul germs 
from Heaven to earth by electricity, on waves of ether. 
Guardian angels protect them. They are part of God, 
or Infinite Intelligence, and are Immortal. Hence, it 
is a terrible crime to kill any one of them. It is an 
insult to our Creator. Life is so sacred and wonderful 
that it is a sin to kill even in war. We could not be 
immortal without our other half. Light and love are 
part of life. Soul germs gradually grow the same as 
any other. We develop mentally through all eternity. 
(Our forms don't grow ; in fact, our spiritual bodies 
grow lighter, more ethereal, more beautiful.) These 
precious globules of light that surround the male and 
female germs emanate from Deity. Male is positive, 
female is negative. One is worthless without the 
other. In other worlds the love of the opposite sex 
is stronger than ever, for they are more sensitive and 
normal. Here we are selfish, ignorant and abnormal. 
We are only children and can improve. We have all 
eternity to learn in. The greatest gift God ever gave 
to mortals or angels is their eternal companion, their 
twin-soul. I worship Him because He has given me 
such a perfect companion and immortality. These 
twin-soul germs have no consciousness before their 
birth on earth, or they would never come here to be 
parted and suffer so long before they are again united 
in love and happiness. I get these wonderful new 
facts by mental telegraphy, clairaudience and clear, 
beautiful clairvoyance. I will prove by these lessons 
and my scientific novel that all souls are dual. You 

30 



are only half of another. God has loved us so that 
He has created some one especially for each one of us 
to love forever. 

One perfect morning in August, 1916, about five 
o'clock, I saw in Mars a farm, and tall apple trees in 
bloom. What a change from earth to Mars. It was 
springtime there and winter here. Our sky is not so 
clear or rich a blue. Our fruit trees are not so large 
or perfect. Our water and air are not so pure. Poor 
humanity fights and sins while Martians work and 
study. They love and enjoy each other; we rob, hate 
and abuse our brothers. 

In August, 1916, again my soul traveled to Mars. 
I saw a big three-story brick building with many win- 
dows. The bricks were a handsome red. The building 
was perfect in structure, proving the architect was 
very intelligent. I sensed powerful electricity in the 
air. Often I have seen my future home. The furniture 
is strong and elegant. The laundry and sewing ma- 
chine were run by electricity. On the north side of 
my future home I saw a light stone chimney decorated 
with pink climbing roses ; some bloomed on the top. 
How I admired the pretty flowers and perfect fruit. 
Their sweet music charmed me as I danced with them 
in the evening. I dined with them. I climbed hills in 
Mars as quick as lightning. As soon as angels learn 
to float they can travel as fast as thought. God has 
given the soul great power and liberty. I enjoy Mars 
now more than I do this world. Again I floated there 
and saw a small clear lake near my future home. There 
are boats on this lake and it is surrounded with beau- 
tiful scenery. That night I danced on highly polished 
hardwood floors. My heavenly home is elegant in 
every sense of the word. I get the future for others 
correctly as well as for myself. Others have seen my 
home and described it to me the same as I saw it. As 
God is my witness, and His holy angels, I swear, upon 
my sacred word and honor, all that I write on Psychical 
Research is a fact. Even my novels are founded on 

31 



my own experience, and on the experience of others 
that now live in Mars and in Purgatory. My aim is 
to do good and give this wonderful truth to others, 
because I love them dearly. Words cannot express 
the love I have for God and His precious children. 
It is heavenly to me to make others happy. I live in 
ecstasy in loving others. r 

Will is might. Our minds take us to Heaven. 
Some day we will float through space like birds by will 
power. The soul of the psychic travels. Following 
are some of the things I have seen very plainly. They 
have impressed me more than any others. Once I saw 
ten large perfect black calves on a farm in Mars a year 
before this journey. I saw chickens, cows, horses, 
birds, a dog and parrot. A white kitty I once owned 
played around my feet. She and another black cat I 
owned knew me. I also played with a cute little dog, 
and a black Shetland pony. In Mars the animals are 
lively and intelligent. One morning about dawn I saw 
a very large arm and hand close to my face. It slowly 
dematerialized. On the night of October 27th, 1916, 
my soul traveled in the slums of Purgatory. I saw Al 
Harris on a dirty bed of rags very ill ; there were boards 
in the front yard, which his father had stolen. He was 
forced to return them. Al was so insane and filthy that 
the sight turned me sick. Dr. Burke woke me ; he did 
not want me to hear such obscene language. I saw my 
mother's face close to and felt her kiss me. I saw 
Dr. Burke in long white robes close to me. I was lifted 
up, up, one lovely moonlight night where I could view 
the Milky Way. I saw thousands of new glorious 
planets. Each floated gracefully in ether. They looked 
like beautiful tinted opals about the shape and size of 
a peach. These magnificent jewels inspired my soul 
to prayer. These are new baby worlds God is creating 
for his future children. What infinite love is mani- 
fested. "In my Father's house are many mansions," 
where we are united in perfect love with the inseparable 
halves of our being. Sometime all of us will be eter- 

32 



nally married to our spiritual counterparts. I know we 
live in perfect love and ecstasy through all eternity 
with our spirit mate. I thank God He has created 
some one for each of us. I worship Him for the great 
immortal happiness He has in store for us. All homes 
and scenes I have described have been my own expe- 
rience in Mars. Dr. B. F. Burke and my mother, who 
reside in Mars, tell me of other worlds that are inhab- 
ited. Every word I write is under test conditions so 
that I may comfort others with these wonderful facts. 
I cannot describe my happiness in feeling my own 
mother kiss me on my lips and hearing her talk to me 
after her death. She talks to me every day. I know 
her voice and see her face. I know our family will be 
united in Mars and I thank God for it. I write this 
book to comfort and encourage those that are now part- 
ed from their loved ones. There is no money to be 
made in books. All I ask is that it will cheer you up 
and be a blessing in your home. Keep it and read it 
for the sake of truth. My daily prayer is, "My Divine 
Creator and Holy Angels, accept my thanks for love, 
life, health and immortality. I thank Thee and the An- 
gels for all the heavenly visions I have seen. O give 
me health and power to help establish universal peace, 
love, and prosperity for all that work. O help me to do 
good and make the world more beautiful. Give me the 
strength to comfort the broken-hearted, the ill, the 
ignorant, the lonely, the helpless, the rich that suffer, 
and the poor. My Divine Heavenly Father, wilt thou 
protect me? May I be united to my mother and the 
dear angels I have seen clairvoyantly ? Please answer 
my prayers and give me more power to work and do 
good. Make me worthy of Thee and immortality. 
Angels of Love and Mercy inspire me to work for uni- 
versal peace, prosperity and love. May I do Thy will 
with a heart sincere. Give me strength to practice the 
Golden Rule every hour of my life. May I get in per- 
fect harmony with Thy Infinite Mind, so that I can heal 
others more abundantly and have greater powers in 

33 



prophecy. Our spiritual minds are powerful electric 
organs. Our minds are great batteries of light." 

HER INVISIBLE SPIRIT MATE. 

A Scientific Novel, by Rev. Mrs. Charles Wilder Glass. 

I. 

"I love you, land of sunshine, 
Half your beauties are untold ; 
I loved you in my childhood, 
And I love you when I'm old," — 

sang a pretty young nurse on her way to work. Beau- 
tiful sunny California. Although it was March, the 
day was as perfect as a day in June. Fragrant flowers 
were in bloom, birds were singing sweetly. In an old 
apple tree a brown and white mocking bird was sing- 
ing near his mate. He seemed to be leading a choir 
of birds that were singing amongst the roses near him. 
Their altar of sweet flowers was close by an open 
window. Nearby, a pretty young nurse walked, dressed 
in white. Trix Elizabeth Haskell had large dreamy 
blue eyes, long heavy golden brown hair, a beautiful 
complexion, tiny rosebud lips always smiling, showing 
two rows of exquisite white pearls. Her form was 
perfect. Trix was all love and energy. She came from 
"The Land of the Dakotas" to take a nurse's course at 
the famous Sanitarium. She married on the impulse of 
the moment a handsome young flirt. Being Dr. Bush's 
assistant, the young bride continued to assist the good 
doctor. Trix was nervous and restless. She longed 
to be out in the sunshine. She seemed to be drawn by 
nature, or some unknown invisible force, out into the 
warm, congenial sunshine. She played with her pretty 
parrot, then wandered out in the sunshine again. She 
turned up the steps of the next house into the still, vast 
hall. At the threshhold of an open door she stood 
spell-bound, her eyes attracted to a pair of handsome 
large blue ones and a broad pale face. The man's heavy 
black hair and beard shaded his face, making it appear 

34 



much whiter by contrast. His perfect red lips were 
full and large. He was six feet tall, very broad shoul- 
ders and narrow-waisted, denoting great strength. 
Trix knew that this talented young physician was 
slowly dying. As each gazed into each other's eyes 
they seemed to have known each other for years in- 
stead of days. With tears in her eyes she returned to 
her young husband. Loyal W. Haskell was reading 
by the open window in the sunshine. 

"Loyal, it must be terrible to die young. " 

Later they buried Dr. Alvin Bush at Lakeport, where 
he was born, — near his old home, close to his little 
daughter Millie. Willard, his golden-haired son, never 
realized that his best and dearest friend and protector 
was dead. Dr. Bush was placed among the golden 
California poppies. The tall blue vase on his grave 
was filled every Sabbath with pure white lilies, an 
emblem of his noble character. Golden and crimson 
roses grew around his tomb. The stillness was only 
broken by the songs of sweet birds. 

"Loyal, I pity his baby. How cruel it is that such 
an intelligent doctor should die so young with lung 
trouble. How he loved his son." 

Tuberculosis killed this great man and thousands of 
others. It should be universally fought by living out- 
doors and eating good pure food." 

"Loyal, dear, bend your curly head close to my own. 
I want to whisper a secret in your ear." 

"We must leave this Sanitarium, Trix, where we can 
enjoy home life." 

"O, Loyal, how happy I will be in a tiny home all 
alone with you, dear. We will buy a cute little home at 
once on the installment plan." 

"Trix, here is a letter from your home." 

"My dear children, I have made you a present of a 
place in Los Angeles. Enjoy it. We will write a long 
letter next time. Your father and mother." 

35 



"O, Loyal, why can't we go at once?" 

"Trix, we will pack our trunks now, and start from 
San Francisco on the next boat that leaves for the 
sunny south." 

"I will put my nurse's diploma in my suit case." 

J-? s^ if: ■ 3|: 4 s 

"Trix, I am glad we caught this boat in time. How 
calm the waters are. Look at the seals dive for fish. 
See how fast we are sailing out from the Golden Gate." 

"Loyal, I am getting sea sick. Thank you for the 
hot water; I am better now. Loyal, come watch the 
great golden sun sinking in the rose-tinted horizon. 
What a' perfect twilight this is. All the colors, of the 
rainbow are floating on the blue sea." 

"Look, Trix, there is a bold whale in the distance." 

They silently watched the golden purple sun as he 
left his glittering pathway behind him in exchange for 
day. Smilingly and gracefully he dived into the 
ocean's depths. "Loyal dear, I would love to paint 
this pretty marine scene." 

"Trix, paint me landing that big fat whale." 

"Loyal, this constant rocking to and fro of the pur- 
ple sea rests me." 

"You need the rest ; you have worked hard for your 
diploma. Trix, I am going to retire." 

"I long to stay out here and see the moonlight shin- 
ing on the waters. O how I enjoyed that glorious 
sunset," mused Trix. "O, how delightful this voyage 
is, the noise of the waves is sweet music to my ear. 
How wonderful and powerful God is to keep such a 
noisy, restless sea in its bed." How safe she felt, 
trusting in Him for love and protection. A sweet new 
happiness filled her soul, as the moonlight cast a 
golden path on the turbulent waters. Her thoughts 
soared above the angry 'waters, and seemed to mingle 
with an angel in rapture, somewhere away out in the 
fathomless ocean of space, far above the dark strug- 
gling billows her soul found rest. Trix rejoiced in 

36 



this new bliss, for she was young and the world was 
beautiful to her. She thought life was grand and 
worth living nobly. She determined to do all in her 
power to make the world more beautiful, because she 
had sensed the divine presence of an angel. This new 
knowledge made her happy. For a moment the soul 
was lifted up and experienced a strange new joy. It 
may have been only a fancy, yet this impressive day 
dream gave her new light and hope, new visions. Her 
soul felt the power of a new love. A great divine 
happiness filled her heart. 

"Of Love's clear crystal shall one morn look forth, 
And lo, on the horizon, she will see 
Another soul, nearing on golden wings, • 
And with a cry of light, a sob of joy, 
The dear one will fall panting on her breast, 
And fold his wings and lay his wearied head 
Upon her heart forever." 

Nature's Song. 
"Hast never seen gray mist arise on lonely height? 
Burst not the sun in gorgeous poppy gold? 
Nor spread and gleamed in glory as the light 

In daily-birth transforms this world of old? 

"Or did no meadow young in spring, with crop 
Of tiny waxen buds, bestrew its sward, 
And beckon with a thousand-throated choir 
To come, and croon, and cull, in sweet accord? 

"Nor did the moon's pale gleam make waters bright? 
Nor turn'd the throb of sea to mighty roll? 
Nor did the long-drawn sigh of quiet night 
Carress, and lull, and cool, and heal thy soul? 

"Or dost thou never see, nor ne'er behold? 

That thou art turned, my Friend, in wrath from 
God !" 

— Jennie M. Glass.

Trix and Child 



II. 

"Home, sweet home," how sacred the words are. 
What a shame the author of those words should die a 
homeless beggar — a lonely tramp. Many noble souls 
die in the slums on a bed of straw. Poverty is a dis- 
grace where there is so much land going to waste. 

iji Jj» 5j» 5{t ijC 

"Loyal, see my new blue aprons I made today." 

"They look like sheets to me." 

"I made two in five minutes. All I did was to hem 
both ends. I made two button-holes in the corners 
and cross it in the back, bring the two corners in front 
and button them just like this." 

"Trix, you look sensible and as beautiful as a Greek 
goddess in such a robe." 

"It only takes me a few minutes to iron them." 

"Wear them all the time, dear; you look sweet in 
them." 

"I made them to save work, so I would have more 
time to devote to you and my music. Loyal, I dreamed 
last night a wicked demon that lived in Purgatory 
influenced the Kaiser to fight the world ; he refused to 
be influenced by these wicked Harris demons. So the 
dark spirits went to some younger princes that longed 
for more wealth and power, the Harris fiends in- 
fluenced the men in such a way as to throw all Europe 
in war without giving the other nations any warning. 
Loyal, I dreamed I could read their thoughts. I saw 
by their aura that they had hypnotised some men to 
blow up the Times and other buildings on the Pacific 
Coast. Bill Harris caused this great disaster years 
ago. This dreadful war lasted for years. I saw young 
widows making broth out of poor dogs to feed their 
starving babies. I saw them fight in the air and on 
land and water. After millions of men were killed and 
wounded I saw the Allies win." 

"Trix, I guess you ate too much supper. All nations 
are too civilized to ever go to war now." 

38 



"Loyal, the postman just handed me a letter for you 
from a woman." 

That night Trix read the long love letter to her hus- 
band. She cried all night ; in the morning she forgave 
all for her child's sake. She tried hard to win her hus- 
band's love and make their home beautiful. Poor Trix 
taught music, played in church, and worked and saved 
at home, while Loyal flirted and courted weak-minded 
women. Months went by without any change in the 
home. 

"Loyal dear, I have a surprise for you ; I have traded 
this old home for a nicer one out in the foothills." 

In a few days they were all settled in their lovely 
new home. How happy beautiful Augusta was in the 
new home. Her large handsome soft brown eyes were 
filled with love and happiness. Prosperity changed the 
past conditions. Augusta May grew tall and was per- 
fectly happy. Loyal bought new furniture, a new 
piano and Victrola. Every evening was devoted to 
music and hard study. Trix worked and prayed ; she 
did all in her power to make those around her happy. 
Again Loyal began to flirt and neglect Trix. When 
alone he would swear at her if she did not do all he 
requested her to. He grew coarse and vulgar and 
abused her constantly. Trix longed for a companion 
and a perfect love. She was romantic and very refined. 
She was lonely and craved her husband's love and com- 
panionship. Her sensitiveness and refinement caused 
her great suffering. When alone she prayed for death, 
and often cried herself to sleep. Her tears brought 
more curses and abuse from her husband. He seemed 
to be obsessed by demons. Trix grew ill and said her 
heart began to pain her. Trix concealed her great 
sorrow and lavished her love on her child. She was 
perfectly innocent of any wrong and could not under- 
stand why she should suffer so. She did not care for 
wealth, love was everything to her. She was miser- 
able without it, and determined to make her child 

39 



happy. Trix adored her daughter. They were all so 
happy and delighted, the home seemed like heaven. 
The magnificent scenery was perfect. In the distance 
the mountains were covered with snow, below farms, 
lawns, and beautiful flowers covered the valley. At 
sunrise the hills were carpeted with pale green, crim- 
son and gold. The Arroyo Seco flowed gracefully by. 
Oranges were ripe. Below the orange trees was a 
yellow tea rose arbor, pink and red roses bloomed on 
the broad veranda ; on the east side Cecil Bruners 
climbed among the graceful hanging ferns. Sweet 
mignonette, fuchsias, lilies, yellow poppies, red and 
white geraniums and ferns grew along the side, hedg- 
ing the lawn in. 

"Loyal dear, I love the aviary you built off from the 
dining room. Listen, dear, how sweetly our birds 
sing all day long, their melodious songs make our 
good neighbors happy." 

On the hillside the mocking birds, orioles, linnets 
and meadow larks sang concerts in the elderberry, 
hawthorn and pepper trees. 

"Augusta dear, come and see these graceful pink and 
white roses." They were planted in the shade, then 
climbed to the top of the pepper tree to bask in God's 
sunshine. The eucalyptus sways gracefully to and fro, 
its red and green leaves are rustling in the breeze. 

"Loyal dear, I love to walk with you among the 
golden brown leaves. Loyal, will you fix a swing here 
for our child?" 

"Papa, now that you have finished it, swing me high 
as you can." 

"O, Cousin Goldie, come and see what a nice swing 
papa has made for us." 

The girls romped and played like children, yet they 
were in their teens.' Trix smiled and did her duty with 
a broken heart. She determined that no one should 
know her secret sorrow. No one realized by her sweet 
smiling face that she constantly yearned for death. 

40 



The greatest sorrow that can befall a wife is not to 
possess her husband's love. She earnestly prayed that 
no one else would ever suffer as she had. 

"Trix, get ready and we will go to Redondo today 
and fish." . . . "O joy! Goldie and I will swim 
our heads off. ,, 

>!< >!' * ^ %■ 

"Girls, come and see the pretty shells and moon- 
stones we have found. I have found an opal." 

"Trix, it is bad luck unless I find one." 

"Loyal, after supper we will fish by the moonlight." 

"Goldie and I will go swimming." 

Soon they were knee-deep in the surf. Some college 
boys were diving in the waves near by. "Look out, 
cousin, here comes a wave that will drown us." 
"Goldie, where are you?" "Help! Help!" . . 
"Boys, I am so glad that you have saved her." 
"Girls, we will take you home in our machine to avoid 
the crowd." "How can we ever reward you for saving 
our lives?" said Augusta. "We thought you were 
dead," said Edward Loope. "I was, but I came to 
life." "You may rew r ard us with kisses if you will," 
said Wesley Stowe to Goldie. "Mr. Stowe, you are 
brave, but altogether too fresh." "You judge me 
wrongly, Goldie ; please forgive me. I love you, dear. 
I have watched you from a distance all day long, wait- 
ing anxiously to ask you to be my wife." "Cousin 
Goldie, I am glad we are at home, I am frozen stiff." 
"Girls, may we teach you how to swim tomorrow?" 
"We will be in the surf early tomorrow morning," said 
Goldie. "Augusta, I wish you would go with us to 
the dance tonight." "I love to dance, cousin, and I will 
be over soon as we can dress." "We will call for you 
in one hour." That night they danced joyfully until 
midnight. ... A few months later, the boys 
called on the girls at their city home, with their arms 
full of red roses and candy. These happy four would 
sing love songs in the soft moonlight. They were in- 
separable. "Augusta, you are the sweetest girl in the 

41 



world. I love you dearly," Goldie whispered. Those 
were golden days of love and song. Every day was a 
perfect day, for the young and old danced and dined 
together. Those were truly golden days, for the sweet 
young girls. How beautiful youth is. O how often 
the aged pray for it. 

"Girls, get your old clothes on ; we will walk to the 
hills and pick some pretty red holly for our Christmas 
party." When the house was decorated Augusta said, 
"Mamma, how perfectly lovely our home looks with 
the tree loaded w r ith fruit, nuts, candy canes, presents 
and all decorated with silvery white, blue and gold." 
The home was brilliantly lighted, the young folks were 
laughing and dancing to the sweet strains of a new 
Victrola. All insisted on Augusta May doing some of 
her artistic dancing. How pretty and fairy-like she 
looked as her long curly brown hair floated gracefully 
around her slender young form. "O if one could only 
paint the sweet smile, the little dainty chin, the large 
tender soft brown eyes, the picture would make the 
artist famous," thought Ed. As Augusta whirled un- 
der the mistletoe Edward caught her in his arms and 
kissed her. How the girls sighed as the guests said 
good-bye. They sat a long time in the darkness silent- 
ly watching the tiny candles dying one by one. Thus 
our youth seems to flee, or loving friends die in the 
night-time, vanishing from our midst like stars before 
sunrise. "Augusta, if I should die, I would return to 
you and comfort you ; in so doing that would prove 
there is no space or distance. Sweetheart, the lan- 
guage of the ants, bees and most insects is a kind of 
thought transference. Maybe I can in some way in- 
fluence our birds to sing near you so that you will 
know that mother is watching over you dear. Through 
all eternity we can communicate by mental telepathy. 
Jesus is in Heaven, yet He still sends messages of love 
in this way. He has often flashed His picture to us 
in this manner on waves of electricity. I know people 
who have seen Him. Jesus is so busy that it must have 

42 



been a perfect electric painting of himself that they 
saw, so perfect that they thought it was Him. Jesus 
pressed a napkin to His face while on the way to Cal- 
vary. This marvellous painting is now in Rome in 
perfect condition." "Mama, I want to go to Rome to 
see that picture. Maybe this war has ruined it." 

III. 

"Trix dear, I just heard of a fine seance, I want to 
go out of curiosity." "So do I, Loyal, I never went to 
one. We will go just for fun." 

"Trix, I think the communication with the dead is 
an impossibility." . . . "Here we are, Loyal, the 
house is filled with nice people." "The psychic 
has invited us to examine the trumpet and everything 
in the house, and we have hunted the house over and 
cannot find anything wrong." They heard their grand- 
mother Mary's voice. Later they saw her materialize. 
She looked just as she did on earth. They saw lights. 
Daisy, an invisible angel, picked flowers in the yard 
and brought them in by means of the fourth dimen- 
sion. They heard independent voices and beautiful 
songs. "Trix, there is a Dr. Alvin Bush, who wishes 
to talk to you." "Loyal, how strange, as we had en- 
tirely forgotten him." Daisy moved the horn close to 
Trix. "Trix, I am the Doctor you saw dying in Oak- 
land some years ago. I passed away about the time 
you were married. I remember how beautiful you 
looked standing in the doorway afraid to come in." 
"Why do you come to me, Doctor, I did not know 
you." "By the law of attraction, Trix. Come tomor- 
row night, I have so much to tell you. Will you 
come?" "Yes, I will come." "It will rain tomorrow 
night." "Doctor, I will come anyway." In spite of all 
her misery Trix experienced a strange happiness. The 
next morning on her pillow she saw a box of handsome 
rings set with all kinds of pretty stones, the rings dis- 
appeared in space, and one diamond appeared close, for 
a long time. She could not understand it, so she went 
to the seance to ask about the ring. She was so sorry 

43 



Loyal had to work that night. 

After singing "Nearer, My God, to Thee," Doctor 
came close to her and talked. This time stronger than 
the night before. "Doctor, why did I see a diamond 
ring this morning?" "You may call it an engagement 
ring if you will, Trix. Dear, we were united by a law 
you do not understand at present, but which I will 
unfold so you will understand. Come here and develop 
your psychic talents. Your dreams are real. You will 
live and see most of them come true. Trix, from this 
on we will grow closer and closer together, I will come 
to you at twilight and at dawn to picture the beauties 
of unseen worlds to you. At night I will hold you 
close to my heart and float away to some distant star 
with you. It is my pleasure to fill your life with sun- 
shine and your pathway with flowers. You have been 
unconscious of my presence, yet I have been with you 
ever since my transmission. My dear, you are a 
beautiful psychic. You will prove to others there is 
no death. Some of the names of your angels are Ade- 
laide, Daisy, Henry ( Millie, Lily, Frank Burke and 
his folks. Mary, Daisy and others materialized. Millie 
and her little adopted sister named Kate Burke wore 
pink with a lace overdress. Dr. Bush wore a purple 
robe, embroidered with gold stars. Dr. Frank wore 
long white robes trimmed in gold. Daisy wound up 
a music box, then it floated around the room. Horns 
and flowers floated. At the same time they could see by 
the little spirit lights that not a human hand touched 
any floating object. Angels with soft white draperies 
that glistened with light mingled with them; they saw 
and felt invisible children in their laps. These children 
talked and laughed as human children do. Trix woke 
up next morning with Kate's little fork in her fingers ; 
it was ten minutes before it disappeared in space. She 
also saw a large yellow diamond, then held the perfect 
cut stone in her mouth to see if it was real. Soon as 
she was convinced that she saw a real diamond from 
Mars an angel kissed her and she returned the gem. 

44 



While alone in her room Trix saw some of the faces 
she had seen before at the seance. While wide awake 
she saw a box of rings and jewels from Mars. This 
proved beyond a doubt there are jewels in other 
worlds. "Loyal, how brightly the stars are shining 
after the terrible storm last night." "Trix, I must re- 
tire so I can get up early tomorrow morning." Trix 
sighed when he had gone. "I am restless and lonely. 
How I wish I could sleep. If I could only throw off 
this sadness." Suddenly she felt the presence of a tall 
form clothed in long flowing white robes. She looked 
up and saw the Doctor smiling at her. He playfully 
wound her white shawl around her face and shoulders. 
"Trix, isn't my love great enough to make you happy?" 
"I love you, Doctor, maybe I wrong Loyal; when I 
married him I thought I loved him." "So you did. 
Keep him and be happy. Our happiness begins at 
your death — your glorious death. That day will be 
the happiest day of your life. We will be united then, 
never to part." "How I welcome death. This new 
love has changed my life." "Come in the house, love, 
it is too cold out here for you." The lights were out, 
all was still and dark, the others were sound asleep. 
The room was filled with a soft blue and pink light. 
Doctor tossed his heavy black hair back and placed a 
plain wedding ring on her finger and two diamonds. 
He showed her a perfect white bridal veil and dress. 
"Now do you understand, dear, how I love you?" 4 T 
can hardly realize yet that there are marriages in 
Heaven." Suddenly a beautiful light fell on the Bible. 
Doctor placed one hand on it, raised the other toward 
Heaven and solemnly swore he was her other half, her 
husband, the very man God created for her alone. 
"Doctor, I know you were the soul of honor on earth. 
Daisy and others tell me you are now an archangel on 
a very high plane. Daisy knows your high rank by 
your robes. I worship and respect you, for you have 
made our love so sacred. How proud I was of you 
when you gave me my engagement ring in public at 

45 



the seance. I cannot understand this strange new 
love for you. A holy new love fills my soul, I worship 
the one God has made for me alone. This new truth 
fills my life with sunshine. I live in ecstasy now." 
"Trix, I see you as clear as the day. I love you. How 
new and strange that I should worship an angel. I feel 
your pretty soft lips pressed against my own, my little 
fawn, love, babe/' "Now for the first time I regret that 
I am a mortal of flesh and blood bound to earth." 

"Trix, it is late, I must kiss you good-night and go." 
She stood on the front steps watching his tall graceful 
figure float away in the starlight. She gazed until his 
long white robes were like clouds in the distance. "I 
long to go with him. I regret that I am a prisoner on 
earth, bound in this weak flesh that must grow old 
from long pain and worry, then die. I shiver as I 
realize that the slimy worms will crawl over me and 
devour me slowly. How worthless and ugly we are 
after the soul leaves the body. More helpless and life- 
less than the worms that eat us, is the form without 
spirit or mind. After all, mind is everything and 
should be highly cultivated." The next night she 
found herself waiting again for some one to come. 
"Love fills my soul, — new beautiful love, — love that 
will live forever. The stars are brighter than ever, 
Heaven is not so far away. Love is more valuable than 
life. I love an angel more than my child or husband. I 
must be the only woman in the world madly in love 
with an invisible gentleman." In the pale amber moon- 
light she could see the long white robes covered with a 
blue silk mantle thrown gracefully over his broad 
shoulders. She felt his warm kisses on her yearning 
lips and ecstasy filled her life. She never dreamed a 
mortal could be so happy and life. She was too happy 
to speak or move. "Doctor, this new mysterious love 
is so sacred and dear to me." "Trix, some day every 
man will enjoy his own, the same as I do you, babe. 
My Trix pet, love is all there is, it is life's happiness 
and heaven, my wife, my love." She could not under- 

46 



stand the meaning of his words. Was there ever such 
an experience as hers to love a spirit? She didn't re- 
spect Loyal for he let a dark woman flirt with him. 
"Doctor, the greatest faculty of the mind is love. Love 
like ours is resplendent— golden. Your great love for 
me has made death beautiful. I welcome death. I 
can truly say now 'Death, where is thy sting? O, 
grave, where is thy victory ?' Darling, you have made 
me the happiest girl on earth." She nestled closer to 
his handsome form; he clasped her to his heart and 
kissed her a thousand times. She felt the strong heart 
of an angel beat close to her own. "Trix, I overheard 
you tell the stars your love for me. I will whisper my 
love direct to thee." "How lovely to hear whisper- 
ings of love clairaudiently." "Doll, I have beautiful 
jewels for you, you sweet little love bird. I am build- 
ing a beautiful home for you in Mars. You are gazing 
on the very red star that we will live on some day. 
How we will enjoy each other then. Our honeymoon 
will last forever, dear, and love will increase as we 
sing and study together." "Doctor, will you help me 
with my lessons in the next world?" "My sweet little 
wife, that will be a great pleasure for me." "Did God 
create us for each other?" "Yes, love. Remember, 
Trix, my own, my love is greater than yours ; we make 
no mistakes over there, Archangels teach us the phil- 
osophy of spirit mates and life. Mortals cannot see 
our teachers even clairvoyantly. These great intelli- 
gent souls have told me that you are my spirit mate, 
my own wife. You are the only lady that I love or 
own. You are part of me. Before our birth to earth, 
our souls mingled as one surrounded by a pale oval- 
shaped light, two lights in the center mingled together 
by the law of attraction. You were a tiny negative 
light, I a positive one; these were spirit-mate germs 
which later create the mind. Then the mind develops 
and lives and loves forever." "How?" "Dear, you were 
born with a physical and spiritual body. Our mind is 
dual and has two bodies while on Earth. After our glo- 

47 



rious resurrection we only have our perfect spiritual 
bodies. We are never born on earth but once ; we pass 
on and on until we reach Heaven. We are translated 
from one planet to higher ones about every twenty 
thousand years. At first, we gradually grow more 
ethereal and brighter. Each new translation makes 
our mind and body stronger and more perfect. Light 
is life and power. There would be no life without light. 
Live in the sunshine all you can. Live as long as you 
can ; it gives you more strength and power after death. 
Learn all you can. Your mind takes you just where 
you belong over here. No fool can enter Heaven; 
here they can study and develop the mind, and in time 
are translated on to a higher planet, the same as we 
will be. God is just, and there is hope for all. Trix, 
my doll, at your transmission I will take your beauti- 
ful spiritual form in my arms and carry you home, 
never to be parted again. Be happy with Loyal and 
your child until I come for you. I want him to sup- 
port and protect you. Please don't worry, love, but 
enjoy life more. Keep Loyal, for a low wicked dark 
woman called Lena wants to part you. She ruined 
his life once when he was a young boy, and she an old 
married woman on earth with two children. He de- 
serted her for you and honor, and now she wants 
revenge. Don't attract her by thinking of her. Please 
do just as I say. I could not see you face this selfish 
world alone with this woman influencing your friends 
against you." "Doctor, I promise to stay at home with 
Loyal/where I am safe." "Trix, you had better go to 
sleep now. Tonight, in your dreams you will see vis- 
ions of other worlds. All I picture to you will be 
facts." Suddenly she was in a garden of beautiful 
flowers on a sloping bank. She picked a heavy cluster 
of purple hyacinths. Pansies and violets grew in 
abundance. , Many flowers that grew on earth were 
there; the leaves and petals were perfect and did not 
fall. They did not pick the flowers there, as they loved 
life, and were sensitive to pain and joy. Since she had 

4S 



seen some of the magnificent flowers in other worlds 
she planted flowers, fruit trees and vegetables in her 
own yard. She had a hundred varieties of pretty roses. 
In spite of all her hard work the yard was a poor imi- 
tation of the gardens she had seen in other worlds, 
because of insects, worms and "devil-grasses" which 
she never saw in Mars. "Love, please don't work so 
hard with the garden and housework. I know it is best 
for you to work for the angel world. Trix, love, give 
your visions of the soul world to this selfish war-mad 
world." "Doctor, I will work, for God and His an- 
gels. 'Thy will be done on earth as it is done in 
Heaven/ May we love and help each other more. 
May we live for others and practice the Golden Rule 
cheerfully." "Trix, my doll, the greater our educa- 
tion the more benevolent we are." "My darling Doc- 
tor, I must do more good from this time on, so I can 
be worthy of you when I die, dear. I want to go on 
with you and not be earth-bound, groping in darkness 
and despair." "Trix, my love, each must work out his 
own salvation. Send out good thoughts, and they will 
return to you and comfort you ; plan the ruin of an- 
other and you will fall the same way. If you wish to 
climb higher, help others up. Good-night, little love, 
I must go to work now. I am always very busy, pet. 
All angels are, dear. Kiss me good-night, you tiny 
love-bird. My dove, I adore you." 

Next morning she noticed that some of her flowers 
were in bloom. "Augusta dear, come and see the 
beautiful flowers. I planted them to make you and 
papa happy. I will pick a bouquet of these large 
American Beauties and give them to your violin teach- 
er." "Mamma dear, she will go wild over those hand- 
some roses." "Here on the sunny side of the house 
are golden California poppies, pansies and sweet peas.. 
Our barn looks well covered with old English ivy min- 
gled with pink and white sweet peas and morning glor- 
ies on the back fence; they climb every tree in the 
yard, dear. Here is a pretty bed of the morning bride. 

49 



I have all the colors of the rainbow in this garden." 
"Mamma, I love these Chinese pinks and sweet alys- 
sium." "Pick them whenever you please, dear." 
"I will pick some of these dear old-fashioned 
red and yellow calendula and marigolds." "I will pick 
some zinnia for your room, love, and some asters for 
papa's room." "Mamma, how artistic you and papa 
have made these grounds. I like the border of calliop- 
ses around the violets. How beautiful the long rows 
of iris and calla lilies are in the rear." "My daughter, 
these beautiful flowers are so perfect they look as if 
angels had transplanted them from Heaven in the 
silence of the night. How I love the flower gardens, 
the trees, the lawn and our dear home. Our fragrant 
orange trees are in bloom ; at a distance the blossoms 
look like white stars decorating the green. Mocking- 
birds sing all day long in our trees, our pet canaries, 
although imprisoned in their aviaries, join the happy 
wild birds in one grand outburst of melody. Sweet 
music fills the air at all times. Our bungalow is sur- 
rounded by sunshine on the hillside." Augusta nestled 
on the lawn among the flowers, her long curly hair 
tinged with gold waved among the tall graceful tube- 
roses. She got most of her lessons in the sunshine. 
Their hearts were filled with love and happiness. Of- 
ten in the twilight lovely angels clothed in white visit- 
ed them to protect them. They heard them whisper 
sweet words of love and comfort; even if their homes 
and conditions are better than ours, these white-robed 
messengers of love teach us to be contented under all 
conditions, whether young or old, rich or poor. 

"Augusta, love, please form a new habit of smiling 
while you study; be happy and contented under all 
circumstances. We can always communicate with 
each other by thought transference. Dolly dear, when 
you smile you are the most beautiful girl in the world." 
"You think so, because I am your only child: Mamma, 
I wish every one was happy as we are." "Dear child, 
I wish every one had more than we have. It is our 

50 



duty to be happy and make others happy. If I were 
rich I would use one half to build schools. We need 
more schools. I wish all young folks could be edu- 
cated as you are. How sweet of you to never miss a 
day of school. With all your studies in school I don't 
see how you can paint and play the piano and violin 
so beautifully, and yet you have time to dance and 
swim. You are mother's brilliant fairy-mermaid, my 
little queen. Mind is everything, so learn all you can ; 
it develops the soul and draws you closer to God. 
All you take to the other world is your education and 
wonderful mind. Study hard; it pays, love. Live in 
ecstasy, think good thoughts. Jesus taught us 'as one 
thinketh so is he/ Dear heart, please don't sigh or 
worry over anything. We provide for you. We wor- 
ship you. Think how much more we have than Christ 
had. Augusta, love, wear your pink silk dress that 
Pearl gave you. Come in the house; I will give you 
extra money for your college party tonight." "Mama 
dear, how good you are to me. I am always going to 
stay with you and papa and never going to get mar- 
ried. How beautifully the home is decorated in green 
and white. Mama, I am ashamed to spend so much 
on a party, when poor papa is slaving to pay off the 
mortgage on this beautiful home." "Augusta dear, 
don't worry your pretty little head, I will make it up 
in economy. I must sell more of my books so you can 
keep in college, love. We will get some more music 
pupils. Love, papa and I will play chess in his den 
while you young people enjoy yourselves alone. I 
could not be happy unless you are." "Cousin Goldie, 
hurry up and get ready for our party, we all know that 
gink Wesley Stowe is in love with you." "I hope he 
tells me so w r hen he takes me out in his new automo- 
bile tomorrow." "How strange, Goldie, Edward Loope 
and I are going also. We will race you. Here the boys 
come now. I hope they did not hear us, or they might 
conceited. Wesley, how happy you look." "Goldie, come 
and see mv new auto. We will ride around the block ; 



51 



they will never miss us." "Goldie, I must kiss you 
before I let you out. I love you, little one." "Let me 
go, I hear my stately cousin calling us." "Goldie, this 
party is too grand for you to sneak out and take moon- 
light rides." "Augusta, you look lilce a beautiful queen 
at an ancient banquet." "I am Cleopatra; the next 
time you leave us I will have my pet lions eat you up." 
"Goldie, dear, you look like a little fairy with your 
sweet smiles." "Wesley, they will know we are in 
love if they find us here in the hall alone." "Goldie, I 
fell in love with you the first time I ever saw you. I 
have carried this diamond ring in my vest pocket a 
month trying to get up courage enough to ask you to 
be my wife. Will you run away with me to Santa Ana 
tomorrow? I must marry you now." "Why not wait 
until I am twenty-one? What is your hurry?" "It 
would kill me to wait. I have other reasons. We must 
keep our marriage a secret as your mother would never 
give her consent." . . . "O Goldie, Edward won 
the first prize in pit. Why do you blush so? Do you 
love him?" "Cousin, I love Wesley; he is so tall, dark 
and handsome." "I am crazy over blondes." "Girls, 
go to sleep or you will not be able to go to school to- 
morrow." . . . "Loyal, what a perfect day this is. 
I hate to wake the girls up for breakfast ; they look so 
sweet in each other's arms. Goldie so white with light 
brown hair tinged with gold in the sunlight ; our child 
so dark with wonderful mild brown eyes and dark 
brown curly hair." 

Goldie shook Augusta. "Augusta, wake up. I 
dreamed I saw my dead sister Eva last night all in 
white. Eva was tall and dark and resembled you. 
She implored me not to leave school. I felt her kiss 
and hug me just as she used to." "Goldie, dear heart, 
I will be your sister. I never had a sister or brother. 
I will adopt you and always love you ; you look like a 
sweet angel doll today." "Augusta, will you comb my 
hair over. I want to look my very best today for 

52 



Wese." That evening Goldie came home late. "Goldie, 
I am so glad you have returned. Your poor mother 
is worried to death over you." "Augusta, if 
you will promise to keep a secret I will tell you why I 
was gone so long. Cousin, see my wedding ring. 
Here in our suit case is our marriage certificate. Cous- 
in, I love my husband dearer than life. O how pre- 
cious this paper is. Life seems different to me now 
that I am a bride. My sweet cousin, I am too happy 
to breathe. I fell in love with him the day he saved 
my life. That was a joyous new day to me, dear. O 
that lovely night in the moonlight by the sea he kissed 
me, my soul was filled with ecstasy." "I often won- 
dered why you stayed out until midnight. I wish you 
great prosperity and happiness, dear heart. Listen, 
Goldie, I hear voices. It is Wesely." "Hello, Morris, 
do you think you can keep a secret?" "I certainly can, 
Stowe." "I just married Goldie secretly." "Thank 
God it was not Augusta. I want her myself soon as I 
get rich." Above them Augusta was trembling. 
"Wese, I will throw these roses in her window." 
"Girls, come down stairs, we will sing and dance to- 
gether." Goldie wore her wedding dress. Augusta 
wore yellow silk trimmed in pink roses. They danced 
with the boys until midnight. . . . Morning came. 
"Wese, wake up ! I just dreamed a pretty angel 
named Eva showed me a gold mine in Arizona. She 
was dark and tall, with large brown eyes. I will go 
for Goldie's sake. I will phone her and tell her about 
the dream." "How strange, Ed, she just told me she has 
a sister dead, of that very description. My mother's 
dreams always came true. I will go with you. To- 
morrow night will be our last with the girls for some 
time. To part from those we love is one of the great- 
est sorrows in this world." "Wese, that is why I hate 
war, as it breaks up happy homes. I long for a wife 
and children. I must have a companion to love." 

53 



Goldie's heart beat violently as the phone rang. 
"Augusta dear, the boys are on the way here. I am 
glad the folks are gone so we can enjoy them alone." 

"Answer the bell, Goldie, I want to powder my 
freckles." 

"Goldie, how sweet you look all in white tonight." 
"Boys, won't you stay for supper?" said Augusta smil- 
ingly. "Yes, if we can help cook it." Augusta started 
the Victrola so they heard popular love songs as they 
laughed and worked. The supper went off gaily. 
"Augusta, will you take a spin in my car while the 
bride and groom are doing the dishes?" "Nothing 
would please me better, Edward." Later they were 
walking in the moonlight on the beach. "Augusta 
May, I love this place for I first saw you here, caressed 
by the lucky waves. I brought you here just to tell 
you how dearly I love you. Will you be my wife soon 
as I get a home for you, dear?" "Edward, I love you 
too and will marry you. I want the opportunity to 
finish college first. Ed, I know that we will always be 
happy together." "Sweetheart, you are the most beau- 
tiful girl I ever saw, and so talented in every respect. 
I am the most fortunate man in the world. I will make 
myself more worthy of you and live for you alone." 
"I am cold, Edward, we must return." "Please wait 
here a moment, doll. I will wrap you in a warm robe 
and carry you to the machine." At home Augusta 
entertained her folks with songs and artistic dancing. 
Edward announced their engagement, then Trix 
clasped her only child to her heart. Wese cried, "Goldie, 
come out on the veranda ; I want to kiss you good-bye, 
dear." "Wesely, I long to go with you. I hate to be 
parted even for a day." "My wife, if I should ever 
leave you for wealth would you forgive me?" "I will 
think about it and tell you later." "I beg you to tell 
me now, Goldie." "I will forgive everything long as 
you are absolutely true to me. I never could love a 
man that would be untrue to me. I do hate a flirt, 
dear." "So do I, Goldie." "Then I am glad we are 

54 



married, Wese." "Why don't you ask your husband 
for money, dear, as others do?" "I don't know how." 
"Here is all I have, dear; make it last long as you 
can. Don't that sound like an old married man? My 
sweet little wife, it proves you love me to marry a 
poor boy like me, honey-bunch." "We married for 
love and not money." 

"I am the happiest man in the world. Kiss me again, 
Goldie. Here is more money for you." "It seems so 
new and strange to take money from a man." "Re- 
member, dear, I am your only husband. Soon as 
I get rich we will buy a nice home." "Augusta hov; 
did you get out here so soon?" "We have been here 
two hours. Time flies when you are in love." "How 
do you know, Edward?" "Kiss us good-bye and don't 
tell my folks we were here for we must keep the mar- 
rage a secret." 

The girls were left alone. "Goldie, listen, the dear 

boys are singing to us under the window. Goldie, how 

beautiful the song is, — what wonderful voices V 

"When stars are in the quiet skies then most I pine for 

thee; 

Bend on me then thy tender eyes as stars look on the 

sea, 
For thoughts like waves that glide by night are stillest 

when they shine; 
Mine earthly love lies hushed in light beneath the 

stars of thine; 
Mine earthly love lies hushed in light beneath the 

Heaven of thine. 
There is an hour when angels keep familiar watch on 

men, 
When coarser souls are wrapped in sleep, — Sweet 

spirit, meet me then. 
There is an hour when holy dreams through slumber 

fairest glide, 
And in that mystic hour it seems thou shouldst be by 
my side. 

55 



The thoughts of thee too sacred are for daylight's 

common beam ; 
I can but know thee as my star, my angel, and my 

dream. 
When stars are in the quiet skies, then most I pine 

for thee; 
Bend on me then thy tender eyes, as stars look on the 
sea." 
"Weseley, do you realize how lonely your bride will 
be while you are away? Women pine and die just 
from terrible loneliness." 

"Ed, those poor little girls never dreamed it was our 
last night with them for some time. We will pack our 
eats and clothes in this suit case, then start for Arizona 
about dawn." "Why not start now? I am too broken 
hearted to sleep, Ed. I am ashamed of myself for 
leaving Goldie. I am glad I gave her all I had." 
"Wese, I borrowed some on my watch. We can sell 
the machine soon as we get there." 

"How fine these roads are." "Not for those who 
pay taxes." "Look at the sun showing his glorious 
golden head over the lofty mountains. What a beauti- 
ful morning this is. The speeding is fine, the air is 
delightful, the scenery grand and inspiring. What a 
change from the noisy city. Wese, I am hungry as a 
bear. We may as well camp here by the running 
brook and cook supper. Look at the rainbow trout. 
Get busy with your line and earn your supper. Wese, 
here are some beauties. We have plenty to last us for 
a month. Old man, we will fry them on this flat 
stone." "Look yonder !" "Hush your face and get the 
gun, — a fool for luck. There is a big fat buck drinking 
out of our stream." "Ed, you accidentally killed him ; 
it proves the Lord will provide." "Beau, this is the 
finest venison I ever ate." Two days later, after driv- 
ing all the while, they stopped. "Why not stop at this 
old shack and trade some venison for a good hot meal 
and some bread?" "Boys, that deer head is a beauty. 



I will give you grub to last you a month for it." "It 
is a go, stranger." "Ed, how hospitable the people 
are in the mountains." It is late, we must drive on." 
"Wese, I had a strange dream last night." "You are 
living too high." "Laugh, I will tell it anyway. I 
dreamed I saw a tall handsome angel with heavy black 
hair, dark blue eyes, broad face through the eyes, large 
red lips, fair complexion and broad shoulders. His . 
long blue robes were perfect, gold stars were woven 
in the rich cloth. He pleaded with a sincere rich mus- 
ical voice for us to go to Europe, work for speedy and 
permanent peace, form a congress of all nations to 
settle all trouble, by money and never by cruel blood- 
shed. God said 'Thou shalt not kill/ All nations 
should love one another and help each other, he said. 
"Go and enlist as spies in the army. Teach the poor 
soldiers to strike ! Suggest a great strike. Plan it all 
out first with the men. Try to end the war at once. 
We will protect you and help you day by day. 
We will influence others to help you. Stop this heart- 
less war and bring about universal love and prosper- 
ity. We beg you to save those noble white soldiers. 
What a crime to murder each other." I said, "Doctor, 
I would go at once if I had the money." "We will pro- 
vide the money if you make the conditions." He 
beckoned me to follow him to a tall pine tree among 
the rocks near the spring we saw last night." "Ed, 
when I saw that tree, I thought may be there was gold 
there." "We will return to it just to see if there is 
anything in dreams. We swear that if there is gold 
there we will sell at once and go to Europe." "It is a 
bargain. We will do it, Wese. I would give my life 
to end this awful war." "So would I. It is the most 
cruel and heartless war the world has ever known. 
Come to the tree at once, Ed." . . . "This spring 
water is cool and refreshing after digging so long for 
gold." "Wese, come here !" "Gold! At last we have 
found gold ! Look see how it sparkles in the sunlight ; 
after all, some dreams are true ; this gold convinces me • 

57 



that the Doctor in my dreams was a living reality ; this 
proves he has intelligence. We will put the utmost 
confidence in him. I hope he comes again. Let me 
dig deeper, Ed. Here is gold in abundance." "If it 
had not been for the Doctor it would have taken us 
twenty years to find a mine like this." "The Doctor 
has trusted us and paid us in advance. It is an inspira- 
tion for us to do good." "Wese, we had better sell 
at once and go to the war zone." "We must put our 
stakes down and hurry on to the next town to sell our 
claim." "Wese,, after all, dreams must be true." 

They rode a little way, and suddenly were impressed 
to stop. "Here is a small town called Williams. We 
will try to sell here." "We will show these few men 
the gold. All the town will be here in no time. Look 
at the crowd already, Ed." "Gentlemen, we have just 
discovered a rich gold mine." "We found it by a 
dream." "Get up on that counter where we can all 
hear you," cried an excited old miner. "This box will 
do. The store is too small to hold us all." "Gentle- 
men, Wese and I want to go to Europe where men are 
war-mad, where brothers are murdering each other by 
the thousands. We long to save the noble white race 
from annihilation. This Doctor in my dreams asked 
us to beg them to strike. A universal strike would 
bring about peace. Can we sell this rich mine to some 
of you or all of you? We will name the mine 'Har- 
mony' " "Here is Chris Martin, Jim Berry and Mr. 
Park who will buy." "Young men, we will get Frank 
Parker, the only lawyer in town, to make out the 
papers." "We must see the mines first," said Jim 
Berry. "Come on, boys, for a glimpse of that 'Har- 
money, then start to the war-zone at once." "Weseley, 
the town accompanied them. "Boys, it is the real stuff, 
the finest and richest ore we ever saw." "The mine is 
worth a million dollars." "We have given you all we 
can afford," said Parks. "You get your cash soon as 
the papers are made out." "I will send Goldie some 
mony mine.' Maybe it is only a dream." Almost half 

58 



may God forgive us for leaving our loved ones at 
home alone. In Europe over twenty million good hon- 
est white men have been murdered in this awful war. 
May God help us to save the rest." "I must go, duty 
calls me. Through dreams angels have opened the 
way they have given us plenty of money to help 
those poor dear suffering souls. They need help now. 
Wese, I hate war, it is a disgrace to civilization. It is 
murder, heartless insanity. It is a crime."

IV. 

"Goldie, here is a letter for each of us. Cousin, I 
will read my delightful love letter to you. "My own 
sweetheart : — By a dream we discovered a rich mine, 
sold it and will start to the war zone at once to help 
bring about Universal Peace. My beautiful doll, I had 
a vision just before I woke this morning. You and I 
were in a white boat feeding swans on a clear blue lake 
at sunrise; the lake was up in the mountains close to 
some big cedar trees. We saw gold and silver fish 
resting on the mossy rocks below us. You wore a 
large gold wedding ring and a beautiful crown set 
with precious jewels. As I awoke the golden sunshine 
filled the room and a new light dawned upon me. I 
would have given all I had in the world to have 
clasped you in my arms, as I did in the boat. I know 
you are mine. I hope we will be married soon as I 
return. I love you madly. Sincerely, Your Ed." 

"Goldie, I hope Ed and I can always live near you 
and Wesely." "So do I, dear." "Goldie, we will pack 
your trousseau away in lavender until your husband 
returns." "I will put it away with lavender and tears, 
my dear cousin." "Girls, you must cheer up, it will 
make you old to be so blue. Then your lovers might 
get a divorce." Then joyfully the women talked over 
the present and the future. "Girls, we must go into 
the silence now." For a while Trix lay half asleep. 
Soon the room was filled with lovely birds and flowers.

Gold and silver fish floated on a miniature lake that 
formed on the table. A large hand materialized near 
Trix holding a box of valuable jewels. "Trix, we will 
visit Mars now." "How fast can the soul travel, 
Doctor ?" "Just as fast as you can think, dear, so we 
can see a great deal." Soon they saw the lovely stars 
of South America. Trix could almost reach them; to 
her joy, the sky was clear and azure blue. She could 
not understand why the eyes of her soul were so per- 
fect. Trix was perfectly happy when traveling in the 
spirit with her invisible companion. "Doctor, you are 
my life, my all in all." "You are the same to me, baby 
doll. I would die for you, love. Trix, I see a great 
future for this world. South America will progress. 
White people will settle here. Mexico will be annexed 
to the United States. The air is pure here, the soil is 
rich." They floated up again to the war-zone. They 
saw wicked soldiers shoot a pure young nurse after 
she had fainted. "Trix, I know another beautiful 
nurse they intend to secretly shoot at dawn ; she is in 
yonder prison; her lover is a French spy." "Doctor, 
I want to visit her at once." As quick as thought 
they were kneeling by her cot in a dark filthy cell. 
"O Doctor, she is a psychic and can understand all we 
say. Jennie, Doctor and I will put you in a trance. 
The soldiers will leave you in the prison chapel to- 
morrow nigfht. While Alvin keeps the guard asleep 
you fly to your lover in the guard's uniform. You will 
find money and a revolver in his pockets." "Jennie, 
you and your lover must go at once to Paris ; there 
you will be married. Make your mind wake you up 
tomorrow at midnight. I will be there to influence you 
to hurry on to the man that adores you. God made 
you for each other and we will protect twin souls 
wherever we can find them." Later as Doctor held 
Trix in his arms near the sweet young girl, who was 
then in a deep trance, they heard the officers pronounce 
her dead, As she lay cold and white in the chapel the 
guard by her side fell asleep. "Wake! Wake up, 

60 



Jennie ! Put on the guard's clothes and take the mid- 
night car to your lover." "Jennie, drink the wine by 
his side; you need nourishment. Now hurry away." 
"O beautiful angels, will you please go with me?" 
"Certainly, you poor sweet child. Run along the 
shadow of this stone wall." They soon saw her 
clasped in the arms of her lover. Both hurried away 
and later were married in Paris. "Trix, I am delight- 
ed with your missionary work." "O Doctor, I love to 
work with you." "You inspire me to do God's will, 
Trix." 

"O, Doctor, every one is afraid of losing their lives ; 
so am I." "Love, I guess you have forgotten that 
your physical body is at home asleep. No one can 
harm you. As I do not wish you to witness such 
hunger and suffering, we will float to Mars. Come, 
babe, we will walk by this calm deep sea. How dif- 
ferent the water is here from the Pacific with its high 
waves eternally washing the coast. The waves grad- 
ually waste away your valuable land. There used to 
be a great deal more land on earth than there is now, 
Doll. Not a wave has disturbed this sea for hundreds 
of years. Dear, you will have smooth sailing when 
you come over here." "Darling Alvin, I know that is 
a fact in every sense of the word." "Trix, my baby, I 
adore you, my own ; you are all in all to me." "Doctor, 
I worship you. I am miserable when I cannot get in 
rapport with you, dear." "How beautiful the sea is 
tonight; it looks as if God had painted all the colors 
of the rainbow on its majestic surface, and the moon- 
light has mingled with the sunlight tonight: O dar- 
ling, I never saw such a glorious combination of 
lights." "Love, it never grows any darker here, un- 
less there is a snow storm in the winter." "Lover, it 
is a little like our world, only more beautiful." "Your 
world is young yet and rich. Some day, love, the peo- 
ple will progress and there will be no more war and 
selfishness. They must learn by experience that we 
are all one universal family. They should learn it is 

61

a great pleasure to work for others and make people 
happy. War is wholesale murder and awful crime. 
War is insanity and ignorance. ,, "I would give my 
life to stop the war, Doctor, but I can't." "Your 
prayers and thoughts help somewhat, Trix; nations 
must learn by sad experience the sorrows of war and 
hate. War breeds poverty and crime. " 

"Darling Alvin, I cannot keep my eyes away from 
the sea. Its colors are so fascinating to me." "Those 
lights are caused by the reflection of one of our two 
moons. We are more advanced in electricity than 
mortals are." "Doctor, how beautiful and calm this 
vast ocean ; why can I see for miles below its surface?" 
"The soul seems to have a thousand eyes and can see 
for miles away. God knows and sees everything, the 
soul cannot be limited after your transmission, love. 
Trix, my fawn, come with me and I will show you why 
it has no waves." "Darling Alvin, what ecstasy to float 
in your strong young arms over this tranquil sea. 
What is that great stone building full of glass win- 
dows for?" "Trix, it is an electric power house that 
lifts the great gate to this canal. Our gate controls 
the canals like your dams do the rivers." The water 
flowed swiftly, the waves in this canal were two feet 
high and miles long. "These canals bring rain and 
keqp our climate temperate. Canals act as a break- 
water and keep the land from sliding into the water. 
Your world would be richer and more perfect if you 
had canals as we have. Doll, do j^ou see that great 
round building in the distance?" "Yes, dear." "It 
is a temple where we worship God in spirit and in 
truth, Trix, teach a new religion founded on the Ten 
Commandments, teach all to practice the Golden Rule 
every day. For example, mortals do not speak to 
strangers ; that is unchristian-like and cruel. Bow and 
smile to all. Christ did, even to His enemies." "Doc- 
tor, even the hills arer covered with blue grass ; what 
wonderful scenery, how I enjoy the play grounds and 
parks ; every one we meet smiles and speaks. A proof 

62 



of Christianity." 

"Trix, my poor child, please don't nurse. Why don't 
you let Loyal support you, dear?" "Doctor, he spends 
most of his time and money with other women." "I 
beg you to leave your patient at once. Go home, take 
a hot bath and rest. You must sleep, love ! Doll, Bill 
Harris and Lena have planned to obsess you so they 
can part you from Loyal; they influence him to flirt 
and swear at you. Babe, look out for these dark ignor- 
ane demons that are trying to ruin you." "I will go 
home now, darling. Doctor, I feel faint, I cannot 
walk another step." Poor little Trix had fainted alone 
in the public park. While Alvin ran for help, Bill took 
possession of this poor helpless innocent girl. While 
suffering alone in the darkness she heard Bill and Lena 
swearing at her. She saw many dark forms surround 
her, she was afraid of them and too ill and nervous to 
get into Alvin's vibration. She knew her darling 
could come if she could keep calm and prayerful. 
While Lena was throwing snakes on her and made it 
appear to her that the lawn was a den of live poison- 
ous vipers, Bill took possession of her mind so he 
could get his wicked, insane son out of darkness and 
despair. Al Harris, his son, shot himself to avoid 
going to prison after robbing a bank and stealing ten 
thousand dollars from his mistress. He had plann^l 
making a million by keeping innocent young white 
girls in misery and shame. Al had forged checks to 
carry on the degrading traffic in girls, for years. Bill 
brought his low depraved son to poor Trix for strength 
and light. Soon as Al came, Dr. Bush materialized as a 
human and carried his sweetheart home while uncon- 
scious. Doctor held her close to his heart all night. It 
was a dark stormy night, the cold hailstones were the 
size of marbles. "Thank God you are safe, Trix, my 
love." A strong young man brought me home in his 
arms." Doctor smiled as he threatened to murder 
the young stranger. Later the Harris fiends began to 
abuse Trix again. It was a mental torture. A silent 

63 



breathless struggle ensued. A war of wills clashed 
about Trix. For hours her mind was strained and 
beaten about as a piece of iron among many magnets. 
But there came a moment when calm was hers. She 
gasped in the cool air. Only God and His holy angels 
know how poor Trix suffered from this heartless Lena 
Colby and the Harris fiends. It was their nature to be 
cruel. "My poor little dove, I will protect you against 
man or woman. Trix, my sweet child, I am glad to 
see you look up into my eyes. That glorious confi- 
dence you always place in me thrills me to my very 
soul. God bless your dear heart, pet, sweetheart, you 
are all in all to me through all eternity. Heavens how 
I love you." "Alvin darling, I worship you. You are 
handsome and the most perfect gentleman I ever 
knew. Your character is perfect. I admire you be- 
cause you are so cultured and polished." "You are 
charming, babe, and have a marvellous voice. I want 
you to learn some new songs to sing in public." "Babe 
I must warn you again against the deceitful Harris 
fiends and their constant companion Lena. They are 
worse than black-hand fiends or Satan. By mental 
suggestion they have influenced men to steal your suit- 
case and set fire to your old home. They are trying to 
break up your happy home and part you from myself. 
In the first place they have no business near you, Trix. 
You are innocent of any wrong. They have planned 
to ruin Loyal and you financially. Their worst crime 
just now is trying to part you and I, who are twin 
souls. That is the most dreadful crime in existence, 
Trix, don't think of them for they have secretly plan- 
ned to make a white slave of you, and your child, soon 
as you die. Babe, remember they cannot harm you 
for God has given me the right to protect you and I 
will. Again I warn you to hold on to your money and 
husband. Kiss me good night, love, I must go to 
my office now, most of us are very busy in Mars." 

Trix watched his tall, graceful form float out of 
sight. A great loneliness overwhelmed her. She 

64 



threw herself on the bed and cried for hours, then 
earnestly prayed for death so she could be face to 
face with him. He soon returned with friends to com- 
fort and pet her. He worked with her for hours before 
he could stop her crying. Soon as he left her the Har- 
ris fiends and Lena began to swear at her and abuse 
her. 

The Harris fiends were low cowards to constantly 
insult and abuse such a benevolent Christian as Trix. 

"O Loyal, I am frightened to death ; I am ill from 
fear; I hear Bill Harris and that wicked dark woman 
swearing at me most of the time. They have abused 
me all night long, I canont sleep. " 

"Augusta, dear, bring me some water, then go for 
the doctor. Your mother has fainted." 

"O papa, I fear mamma will die, she is white and 
cold." 

"My poor little girl, don't cry ; I will take good 
care of her from this on/' 

"O Doctor, will mamma die?" 

"She is very low and must have had a terrible 
shock." 

"Doctor, last night she dreamed a man shot his 
head off." Poor trix, being a sensitive, felt the shock 
as there is no space to a psychic. She was very sick 
ever after. She, being a medium and too ill to throw 
them off, took on the conditions of the suicide. Lena 
and the Harris cowards enjoyed torturing any child. 

"I will take her to my sister's at Glendale for a few 
days' rest." "Loyal, I cannot sleep away from home; 
it will kill me to leave my child." Lena and Bill 
hypnotized Loyal to take his wife away as they were 
determined to part them. They were wicked and heart- 
less to force her from home. Home was her heaven. 
She was put in a trance by her angel friends. 

"Trix, my angel, Lena and her man Harris have 
planned your ruin. She is jealous of Loyal. Harris 
is a lazy thief that wants my money. Babe, he will 
never get a cent, love. Forget them, pet. Go to 

65 



sleep, love." Soon as Trix fell asleep her radiant soul 
floated away with her lover to Mars again. Sorrow 
and fear seemed to be things of the past with her. 

"Alvin, darling, I feel at home here even if I must 
return to earth and live my life out there." "Babe, I 
wish you would die now." "So do I, darling." "Trix, 
my sweet child, I adore you ; my love increases for 
you every day." "Doctor, who is that singing and 
laughing on our porch?" "Look and see, babe." "Al- 
vin, it is my very own parrot." "Here are some new 
pictures for your room, pet. Babe, I have a new 
amethyst ring for you." "You precious darling. How 
perfect the blue violet stone is cut." "Trix, it is in 
harmony with you, as you are my rich jewel." 

"Papa, mamma needs sleep. Why do you wake 
her?" "My darling, sweet little Augusta May, I just 
saw my future home. When my soul travels, supreme 
joy reigns in my heart. Do not tell your father; he 
and I do not agree on religion, yet we are as happy 
as most people are in this world." "I promise not to 
tell him. Hush. O papa, you don't understand poor 
mamma. Do please let her rest." "She needs sleep," 
whispered the voice of an angel. "Loyal invisible 
demons will not let me sleep a moment." Augusta 
May, I heard Al say, "Doctor, send me a diamond or 
a check and I will not insult your wife again." "Never, 
Harris; we do not owe you, or have never wronged 
you." 

"Alvin, I hate this stupid, selfish doctor and his 
strong medicine." "Throw the medicine in the stove 
while your nurse is out. Trix, my love, you are 
not ill, only tired, pet. Harris has hypnotized you and 
others to think so. Love, put your pretty, tired head 
on my breast and rest, babe. You little 'tiddle-de-wee' 
I will reward you for loving me so sincerely. I adore 
you, pet. Do not fear the Harris cowards, I will pro- 
tect you. Love, if you could forget them and not fear 
them they could not approach you. Yet I love you 
because you are such a coward, it is a pleasure to pro- 

66 



tect you. God bless your pure, sweet soul. My poor 
dove, I feel your little form trembling in my arms. 
Trix, I pity you. They cannot harm you while I live, 
dear." "I thank God for you, Alvin. Those demons 
would torture me if it were not for you, precious. " 
"Dr. Bush, I often hear the cowards beg for mercy 
after insulting me." "Lena and these Harris fiends are 
considered the lowest and most deceitful scoundrels 
in Purgatory. Go to sleep now, love ; I will hold you 
close to my heart until dawn." "Oh, Alvin, again I feel 
myself floating away among the beautiful stars in 
your loving arms. How supremely happy I am to be 
with you and leave those lazy earth-bound demons far 
below us." "The red star Mars welcomes us, love." 
This is Heaven, doctor. How delighted I am to be 
home again. What an elegant big rocking chair!" 
"Nestle closer to my heart and I will sing you a 
lullaby song, babe." "What a wonderfully sweet 
voice you have, Doctor." "Trix, I see I must continue 
to teach you how to get en rapport with me. When 
you are awake on earth keep your body and mind in 
perfect condition by right thinking and proper nour- 
ishment. Trix, love, eat more fruit, nuts, raw eggs 
beaten up with pure, rich cream. Every night take 
pure olive oil in lime juice. Drink hot lemonade an 
hour before you retire or a glass of cream to induce 
sleep. Never mix them, love, acid and milk will make 
you ill. Practice classical dancing with Augusta May 
until you are tired, dove, then pray for our union for- 
ever as you always do. My love, know that you are 
success now. Trix, my babe, I would to God that 
your soul would never return to your sleeping form 
again, so I could continue to hold you in my arms and 
calm your tempest-tossed soul through all eternity. 
Calmness is power, babe. I pray that sweet peace may 
reign in your heart from now on. Some day, my love, 
arch angels will translate us on powerful electrfc waves 
to the Holy City of God, beyond the reach of tempests 
and low demons, free from all sorrow and death. Now 

67 



rest, pet, in my arms ; be tranquil and calm. I adore 
you, Trix, my only love. Babe, we must return to 
earth as it is dawn there now and twilight here in 
Mars." 

"Doctor, I am so happy in your arms I hate to go 
below." "Then I will stay by your side a few days on 
earth. I am always with you when you make the 
right conditions for me, dear." "My daughter Millie, 
Daisy and your own mother protect you." "Doctor, 
did you marry your first wife for love?" "No, baby 
dove, you are my first and only love ; she is married 
now to her twin soul. ,, "Doctor, when God is so kind 
and magnificent to resurrect me I will be too happy 
and grateful to ever wrong a mortal as Lena and the 
low Harris fiends have me." 

"Trix, my angel love, you know you could not do 
wrong." "Doctor, then why do they constantly abuse 
me?" "It is their nature, love. Lena is insanely jeal- 
ous and wants Loyal. Al and Bill want me to pay 
them to let you alone as they are too lazy to work. 
They have not improved any, in fact their past crimes 
have made them hideous men. Tell Bill Al is growing 
worse. If he doesn't take care of his insane son he is 
lost. We must all work out our own salvation. We 
obtain immortality by complying with God's laws. 
We must live right and think right. Al still crawls ; it 
will be years before he can stand alone. O if poor 
humanity could only see this living example of misery, 
absolutely helpless and alone in darkness. Trix, your 
husband and an old friend of mine told Lena while 
she lived in California to return to her good husband 
and not run after young married men.. She was a 
wicked drunkard and prostitute. Your husband got 
rid of her and hates her. After her death, caused by 
over-drinking, she was attracted to Al Harris. They 
are still living together in sin and darkness. Like 
attracts like. They fight like cats and dogs, yet she 
supports him. They are so very repulsive and lazy, 
people will not associate with them. His own father 

68 



was an illegitimate son and a drunkard at Al's birth. 
They are both cowards." 

"Alvin, every night these Harris fiends keep me 
awake for hours. Modesty forbids my telling you how 
they insult and abuse me, dear." "Why not tell me 
all, doll? You are my wife in the sight of God." "Al- 
vin, you know my thoughts." "Trix, that is a fact, 
yet you must tell me everything. You see, I keep my 
individuality, pet." "Dr. Bush, we intend to torment 
this girl until you give us money." "You cowards to 
abuse an innocent psychic." Suddenly Alvin flashed 
from the elements a sheet of fire in the cowards' eyes. 
They fell to the ground trembling with hate and fear. 

"Trix, you are in a cold perspiration from fear. I 
must call you 'Faun-Afraid. " "Doctor, are they 
dead? Can there be a second death?" "Long as they 
continue in sin they must live alone in sorrow and 
darkness. Good angels shun them as they will not 
take on their awful conditions. They persist in evil; 
they must work out their own salvation. I gave them 
an electrical shock for insulting you, babe. My wife 
they can never harm you while I live." "I hear them 
beg for mercy, Alvin. My darling, I thank you with 
all my soul for your protection." "That is only a 
pleasure, dove." "Alvin, I long to go home." "Babe, 
I will have your brother call today and take you home. 
You are not ill, Trix, only hypnotized by the fiend, 
Bill Harris, and Lena. Don't fear them or think of 
them ; then they will have no power to harm you ; for- 
get them entirely. Devote yourself to your home and 
music, pet. Keep your mind in tune with God and 
His angels." **/>** 

"My darling Augusta, I am so happy to be home 
again. My sweet child, how pale and thin you look." 
"My poor mamma, I suffer when you do." "Little 
sweetheart, my invisible companion has entirely healed 
me. In Mars he is a doctor of the soul and very pop- 
ular. My soul travels and often visits his sanitarium 
there. I have discovered that one must obey the laws 

69 



of God and nature on all planets to keep in perfect 
health and happiness. Augusta, I am delighted that you 
study so hard. Your great mind will take you on to 
higher planes. " "Augusta, where is our bank book? 
I want to buy you some pretty clothes. " "Mamma, 
papa influenced me to draw the money out." "My 
poor child, it was my private money ; how deceitful of 
your father. He forced me to mortgage our old home, 
pet. I refused for your sake. He swore at me. I 
signed just to have harmony in my home. How happy 
I would be if he were the soul of honor, like Dr. Bush." 
"Trix, my love, I thank you for the compliment I just 
overheard." "I worship you, Doctor." "I think the 
same of you, love." "Trix, my dove, close your pretty 
blue eyes. I will show you a glimpse of your future 
with me, clairvoyantly." "Oh, Doctor, what perfect 
white rosebuds you bring me. I see myself as a young 
bride by your side in a spacious new home far away 
from here. I see you placing a crown on my head; 
the jewel in the center is a large yellow diamond; you 
place a wedding ring on my finger and kiss me. You 
hand me a wonderful casket with a heavy gold key. 
Tiny Cupids are engraved on the lid, which I open and 
see diamond rings and other magnificent ones. A 
pearl and diamond necklace, a handsome sapphire 
bracelet and ring to match. I see a dainty chain with 
a lovely locket and your picture inside painted as 
natural as life. We are walking among fragrant flow- 
ers where butterflies and bees come and go. It is 
spring time in Mars. Peach, almond and apple trees 
are in bloom. In the distance I see a new home with 
two children and myself playing on the lawn. As I 
look up into space I behold many colored lights. I 
see ourselves in long, graceful white robes floating up, 
up in a golden white light, and the higher we float the 
lighter and more radiant we become. The brilliancy 
increases as we float upward toward a mighty city and 
Jesus opens a great gate of pearls for us and with a 
tender smile welcomes us to His home. The lights 

70 



from a great new sun dazzle my eyes as our sunlight 
does the newborn babe. The healing force of a strange 
new electricity keeps us strong and young. The Arch 
Angels absorb this light; so do you and I. All tears 
and sorrow have gone forever. Our love and happi- 
ness increases in glory forever in Heaven. " 

"Trix, my sweet angel, your clairvoyance is perfect. 
Your visions were emblems of your future life with 
me. Some sweet day all will be realized. Love, keep 
cheerful, please don't worry. I beg you to enjoy every 
moment of your life while on earth. You have tested 
my love and know I speak the truth. I will take your 
dainty little form in my arms at your death, Trix, and 
we will grow closer and closer together. No one can 
part us then, love." "Doctor, I worship you, dear." 

VI. 

"Wese, look, I see ships on fire in the distance." 
"Ed, there is a man floating on a plank near us. Ask 
the captain to lower a boat. We will save him." 

They worked over the collapsed figure. "Young 
man, we have worked over you a long time to save 
your life. Who are you?' "My name is Charles Ford. 
I am from dear old America. I left home to establish 
Universal Peace." "We left America for the same rea- 
son." "Boys, I will try again. I am discouraged for 
all Europe is war mad. It is insanity. May God help 
us to stop any more bloodshed. If I could only picture 
the inferno of this war on land, air, and sea. My com- 
rades sank with the ship. A sweet voice of an angel 
whispered for me to dive. I was saved. This plank 
was in front of me as I rose to the surface. I was 
saved to do good. I wish we could sail faster. Boys, 
before our ship sank I saw the 'Queen Mary' blow up 
after she sank six great German ships. Not a soul 
was saved, the deadly gas shells killed hundreds." 
"Ford, you are a noble American. We love you ; we 
want all rulers of each nation to sign a strong contract 
for Universal Peace. If one nation wrongs another 
they must pay money instead of precious blood. It is 

71 



our duty to preserve the noble white race. They need 
us. I have seen hundreds of nice, refined men die like 
sheep in those filthy damp trenches. The poor dear 
souls are suffering in agony and dying by gas bombs 
and fire brands. Some suffer in agony for days with- 
out attention, then die from starvation or blood poison. 
No need of such suffering. God made this world too 
beautiful for us to mar it by war and selfishness. " 

The ship made a straight run for shore. I am glad 
we have landed safely at last. Come, we will drive 
out to camp. I know some nice nurses there. The 
soldiers look upon them as angels. I know they work 
day and night to relieve pain." * * * 

"Boys, allow me to introduce you to two pretty 
young American nurses, Miss Flora White and Kate 
Burke." "Gentlemen, this is my new assistant, Lily 
May Loope. We want to help you establish peace?" 
"Miss Kate Burke, you are a noble, good girl ; we came 
here to get your help." "Mr. Ford, my invisible helpers 
will direct us. Gentlemen and ladies, we will sit in the 
silence an hour. I know my invisible companion, Dr. 
Frank, will help us. He has often asked me to help 
make the world more beautiful. It was through him 
we are nursing here now. He has often saved my 
life from flying shells. He directs me to the wounded 
and dying." 

After singing "Sweet Peace" they held each others' 
hands in silent prayer. 

"Friends, I hear Mr. Stead and Dr. Frank talking 
now." "Do tell us all," they said. "I will, Mr. Ford. 
Dr. Frank said, please make this camp your headquar- 
ters. You will find a lot of uniforms in a country 
church near here and behind the altar you will find pa- 
pers and money. The priest that put them there was 
killed a few weeks ago. He w r as praying at the altar 
as a bomb hit him. Wear the different uniforms. Coax 
as many young strong soldiers to desert the army as 
you can. Bring them all here and I will influence Miss 
Burke to lead you to a new warship that you may es- 

72 



cape in. Be very wise and make each soldier promise 
upon his honor not to tell, but to do as you say. Go 
now to get the uniforms. " 

"Weseley, if we find them I will do as Kate Burke in- 
structs. " "Dr. Frank is here to lead me to the church. 
We will follow him." "How wicked to destroy this 
wonderful church. Ed, will you please light some of 
these candles so we can hunt for the things. In our 
haste we all forgot the matches. " Suddenly a large 
white hand was seen in the darkness and an angel 
lighted seven candles. 

They found the uniforms and ran home with them. 
"Ed, you wear this French captain's suit. Hunt in the 
pockets for the money and papers." "Wese, here is the 
money, sure as you live." "Weseley, you put this 
German uniform on. You must save some Germans. 
O, here are the papers. We will read them together. 
Flora, you read German ; tell us the contents." "O 
joy, there is a large wonderful submarine hidden in 
one of the docks. We will capture it and escape. These 
papers and uniforms will help us. Dr. Frank said to 
pretend the rest of us are prisoners. Some dying 
soldiers gave us a lot of pistols. We will take them. 
O, here are some English uniforms, don't you know." 
"In seven days you will return here with a lot of sup- 
posed wounded soldiers. We will plan again at mid- 
night when you return." "We will be very busy now 
working day and night so wt can carry out these plans 
for peace." "Miss Burke, what will I do; there is a 
man dying in agony in the next tent?" "Lily, give 
him a little warm cream. I see he is choking; hold 
him in your arms, pray with him until he passes away, 
and be sure to keep a light at his head as it will 
attract good angels. Flora, keep the candles burning 
around the dying tonight." "There are but a few can- 
dles left. I will run to the church and get more." As 
she started she heard a dear voice out of the darkness 
say, "Go around the other way or you will be killed." 

73 



As she returned with the candles she found a burn- 
ing shell in the path she had intended to take. That 
awful night she stayed with many dying souls. She 
could not sleep a moment. She heard men crying for 
death to end their awful suffering, and she was sur- 
rounded with darkness, misery and woe. Al's con- 
stant insults and awful abuse are harder to bear than 
the hardships in war. Their hate was all uncalled for, 
she was innocent of wrong and Kate, being a sensi- 
tive, took on their conditions and suffered and prayed 
with them as she had done for months before. 

"Kate, can't you get some sleep? You look so pale 
and tired." "Flora, I must work hard now. In a few 
days we will escape with a lot of poor abused girls. I 
will hate to leave our poor wounded patients here 
that are so helpless, some blind and insane from pain, 
others without arms or legs, all praying for death. I 
cant' blame the poor, dear souls." 

"Flora, dear, we must do all in our power to stop 
this ghastly bloodshed. O if this awful war could 
end today. How weak and helpless we are." "Lily, 
I am so sorry we have not time or money to help 
the thousands that are dying on the battlefield and our 
terrible dark, unsanitary war prisons." "Miss Burke, 
I am heartsick of this misery. Bread is now ten cents 
a slice and going up, poor, beautiful little young moth- 
ers beg daily for bread as they hold their babies in 
their arms, with tears streaming down their sweet, 
pretty faces. What a terrible life for our dainty, re- 
fined, pure girls, forced to be the mothers of helpless, 
fatherless children. What on outrage on womankind." 

"Flora, I am glad we have formed classes and taught 
these dear girls to economize, sew and farm. They 
seem to love light farming. It keeps soul and body 
together. I think it is a shame they must nurse these 
babies when they have only one small meal a day." 
"Lily, some don't get that. How wicked it is to spend 
so much to kill men down and let women and little 
children starve. Some day, Dr. Frank said, these chil- 

74 



dren will be wives to black men." "Lily, I love white 
men. I would die before I would marry a black man." 
"So would I, dear. No one* can realize what terrible 
sorrow this awful war has caused. It was useless and 
all uncalled for. It has put civilization back a thousand 
years. How terrible !" 

"Here comes some more women begging for a crust. 
O if I only had bread to feed them. I am heartbroken 
to see so much poverty and misery. You poor, dear, 
hungry souls, our food is all locked up. Yonder in the 
churchyard is a rose arbor; go and eat the flowers. All 
kinds of flowers are nourishing and will keep you 
alive. Make a tea of the mint, it is good for you. 
Clover blossom tea is good for the blood." "We have 
sad news, Miss Burke. Our husbands, fathers and 
brothers have been killed in the war this year. We will 
never see one of our men again." "Look, Flora, there 
is an airship sailing above us." The poor women and 
children ran soon as they saw it, afraid they might be 
killed. 

"It is descending near us. Our heroes returning." 
"Mr. Ford, how did you ever get back so soon?" "We 
captured this fine airship to take you girls away. We 
must start at midnight for our submarine. Miss Burke, 
we will help you pack to go. O girls, we must tell 
you what we saw yesterday. We saw the Hampshire 
sink with Lord Kitchener and seven hundred men all 
lost. We wanted his plans but could not reach him. 
'The Princess Royal' sank at the same time. A voice 
w r arned us not to go on those two ships. Miss Burke, 
never tell a soul our plans or we are lost." "Edward, 
we are all ready to go. I will phone for more nurses 
to take our place." 

"Please don't, Kate, just write a note. The Doctor 
will find it tomorrow after we are safe." "Lily, I feel 
like a coward, leaving the sick and dying. Yet it is 
nobler to save a few while we can. We can't all escape 
in that airship." "Why not make rope ladders?" "Ed- 
ward, you are a genius. There are stacks of new rope 

75 



in the warehouse. Come, we will make a ladder." 
"Do hurry, boys, it is time to go." "Edward, you run 
the airship straight for our submarine. Miss Burke, 
sit close to him." 

Mr. Ford, we must hurry. I hear Dr. Frank say, 
"Go at once and sail tonight. If you are caught it is 
death." We will stand on the ladder and hold the two 
girls." "Why can't we tie our bundles on the ladder 
and let me take those two cute babies in the children's 
ward? I promised their mothers on their deathbed I 
would care for their sons." "Certainly you can take 
them. Hold them in your pretty white arms, Kate." 
"Mr. Ford, put this can of milk in your pocket for our 
boys ; they eat their heads off. I fear this airship will 
break down with such a burden." "There is no dan- 
ger, the night is dark. I hope no one will observe 
us." "O joy, this is fun, sailing in the dark. Mr. Ford, 
how dare you to hug me so tight?" "So you will not 
fall, my dear Flora. I hope this airship never stops 
sailing. I love you, Flora, will you be my wife?" 
"Yes, Charles." "Then you really love me, little girl?" 
"I certainly do or I would never marry you ; it is a sin 
to marry a man unless you love him, dear." "What a 
beautiful night; just enough moonlight to see your 
pretty young face. Flo, you look like a sweet little 
angel floating in the sky ; your long white veil floats in 
the clouds like real wings." "These are all the wings 
I ever hope to have. Look, we are descending over the 
waters. O what a wonderful big ship." "That is our 
submarine." 

"O Dr. Frank, you are the most wonderful angel in 
heaven to plan this escape so royally." "We are going 
to sail away in great style with many noble souls." 
"Where did you get all these sweet, pretty young girls, 
Edward, and handsome, intelligent soldiers?" "We 
rescued some from the reform school, some are the 
soldiers' sweethearts. We have a minister. All will 
be married at sea. Now, Charles, tell the captain to 
sail straight south under water for three days. Dr. 

76 



Frank says we must or we will be captured." "I thank 
God we are on the way." 

"Kate, my love, have them lower your boat at once 
and sail to the right now a little to dodge a torpedo." 
"How did you persuade all these dear young souls to 
escape with you, Edward?" "I lectured to them on 
Socialism in the basement of a large cathedral. Half 
of the soldiers took automobiles and ran for their 
sweethearts. The rest of us held up the matron who 
abused these young girls shamefully. We asked the 
girls to marry us and elope. All but a few little ones 
eagerly came with us to love and freedom." 

A sweet girl began to cry and tell how she was 
beaten, and abused. "That old reform school was 
worse than prison. We all prayed for love and liberty. 
God has heard our prayers." "We will never regret 
the step we have taken, not so long as we live," cried 
the boys. 

"Girls, Dr. Frank said tomorrow night we can rise 
to the surface and be married. Our poor, dear minister 
will earn his wages tomorrow. He will be very busy 
for a few days under the circumstances." 

"Mr. Ford, I am so glad you married Flora. She is 
a pure, sweet little angel. Most of us are brides now, 
sailing on our honeymoon. After seeing all the suf- 
fering we have in the war zone it seems like going 
from Purgatory to Heaven." "Miss Burke, I never 
was so happy in my life." "Wese, come to our cabin. 
No place for us here. Every man is making love co 
his bride; not a soul has spoken to us since the 
preacher got busy. We will get Miss Burke and plan 
out our future. Here she comes, Ed, now." 

"Gentlemen, Dr. Frank wants to talk to us alone to 
help us plan our future." "Those are our sentiments." 
"We. will pray a few minutes, then sing, to get better 
conditions. I see Dr. Frank now, and hear him clair- 
audently." "Do tell us all you hear, Miss Burke." 
"Visit South America to get more supplies, then go 
to New Orleans. You will meet a scientific farmer 

77 



named Mr. Hall. Mr. Hall has a sweet tenor voice and 
a fine education. He is a scientific farmer and a king 
among men. Sell your boat at Washington. Buy 
Iknd of Mr. Hall and start a big colony. Call it 
Tord/ " 

"We will do as you say, Dr. Frank." "Be sure and 
sail under water again tomorrow as the Germans are 
after this boat. You may travel on the surface nights. 
Turn off most of the lights and keep south by west." 
"We will go and give the order to the captain now." 
"Dr. Frank, I can hear all you say and see you also. 
The conditions are much better on water." "My love, 
I see you as plain as day." "Darling, the other girls 
do not dream I have an invisible companion that loves 
me." "Kate, they would not pity you so much if they 
knew I was here most of the time making love to my 
little wife. Baby, my love, I wish I had married you 
when I was on earth. I did not know what love was 
then." "I could not live without you now, Dr. Frank, 
even if you are a spirit. I love you more than any one 
in the world. If it were not for you and good that 
I could do I would kill myself, for the, Harris fiends 
torment me day and night. They constantly abuse and 
insult me. O Dr. Frank, Purgatory must be Heaven 
compared to this war. In dreams I am alone in the 
midst of death and terror. I work day and night with 
the wounded and dying. I never see a smile until the 
Angel of Death has claimed its poor suffering victim." 
"My poor little angel, if you kill your dear self we will 
be parted for a hundred years at least and your sorrow 
will increase and darkness will surround you. Soon as 
you are safe in my arms I will punish the Harris 
dogs for insulting and abusing my sweet angel. If 
you would forget them and did not worry or fear they 
could not get in your vibration." "Doctor, I hate, 
them." VII. 

"Wese, we have sold the boat and bought a large 
tract of land from Mr. Hall. We have the colony 
started. Everything is going on fine. I want to re- 

78 



turn to California. " "So do I, Ed." "Wese, I prom- 
ised to help Miss Burke establish her new Scientific 
Church. Tonight she speaks on 'Proof of Our Glorious 
Immortality' in the schoolhouse at Ford Mission. The 
house is not half large enough. There will be two 
reporters there and the lecture will be published. We 
will help the folks clear up some land until it is time 
to start for the schoolhouse. Mr. Ford, you have done 
more work in this colony in the past few days than 
the natives have accomplished in years." "Our boys 
think this farming is Heaven compared to the inferno 
we left in Europe. They smile now and have good 
health and liberty." "Charles, some of us had better 
fish in the river yonder for a few hours. We can catch 
plenty for all. Come back of my barn, I will show 
you where to dig for bait." 

"Thank you, Mr. Hall, we have plenty of worms 
now for the river." They never caught so many fine 
fish in their lives before. They saw two great gar fish 
with silvery colored scales on that were hard as mar- 
ble. They saw alligators and snakes in the forest on 
the way home. That evening they all ate supper to- 
gether under the tall, graceful pines by the river. The 
girls fried the fish over the campfire. The men kept 
the fire blazing with heavy pine knots that nature had 
saturated with turpentine. They had hot biscuit, corn- 
bread, pecans and fruit. They sang love songs on the 
way to the schoolhouse. How beautiful life now was 
compared to the past. Each one loved and helped their 
neighbors along, hence they prospered. 

"Flora, dear, how beautiful Kate Burke looks to- 
night all in white. I like the way she arranged those 
white geraniums, like a new moon or half crown in her 
pretty brown hair. Her sad blue eyes express so much 
love for us." 

"Ladies and gentlemen, I will speak under the in- 
spiration of Dr. Frank tonight. In other words I will 
tell you what he shows me clairvoyantly. I also hear 
him clairaudiently." "It will make the world more 

79 



beautiful if you live as we do in Mars." She cyclo- 
metrised all their articles correctly and foretold future 
events that later came true. "In Mars we have sun- 
shine, birds, flowers, land, water, homes, schools, 
farms, lovers and animals as you have here. We have 
no wars, flies, slums or death. On earth and in Purga- 
tory these conditions exist, caused by ignorance, sin 
and selfishness. We are taught that the highest moral- 
ity is to love one another. We live the Golden Rule. 
We never permit an erroneous thought to enter our 
minds. We keep busy by hard study, work and play. 
Instead of death we are sometimes translated to a 
higher and brighter planet. I long to see universal 
health, wealth, peace and love on earth." Another 
colonist spoke and Kate held private conversation with 
her Doctor. 

Dr. Frank, I see a large light building on a hill, on 
a veranda in the rear large red grapes are hanging 
gracefully among the golden red leaves. This home 
has many open windows and French open doors. The 
house and linen closets are well ventilated. It is fur- 
nished elegantly. I see tiny little golden birds in a 
willow cage. A green parrot, a grand piano, and beau- 
tiful paintings on the wall. I see the picture of myself 
painted natural as life, hanging on the wall. In the 
hall I see a lot of young folks dancing and smiling. 

"Kate, it is your future home." "Dr. Frank, I can 
hardly realize such happiness is for me. I love you, 
Doctor, I am proud to be your other half." "What 
can I do to make you happy?" "Protect yourself and 
do good. Encourage the poor to plant fruit and nut 
trees. The war has ruined some of the grandest forests 
in Europe; they must be replanted at once or winds 
will sweep over the land and they will suffer from 
great famine as they do in the Sahara today. Without 
trees and birds the sun will dry up the rivers and the 
winds will make a desert of the once cultivated land. 
To save our trees all homes and buildings should be 
made of brick with many windows, and painted inside 

SO 



and out every year. Save your valuable trees, they 
make the world rich and beautiful. Burn all decay 
and rubbish, burn scale from trees. Eat perfect nuts 
and fruit. One meal for grown people is plenty, three 
for children. Study hard and enjoy life if you wish to 
live long. As it is getting late I will give you some 
messages and prophesy things that will take place 
some day." She told them this and continued : 

"Edward, I see you and Weseley going to California 
where your sweethearts are waiting for you. Weseley, 
your wife's name is Goldie. Now I know why you did 
not get married on the boat. The Allies will win in 
this awful war. Black men will marry white girls in 
Europe. Crowned heads will be institutions of the past 
some day, and Socialism will rule. Women will vote. 
Mexico will be annexed to America. Love and peace 
will rule the world some day. They will build more 
schools and canals instead of prisons and awful war- 
ships. The more good you do and the harder you 
work, the quicker these things will come to pass." 

"Dr. Frank, we rise, thanking you with all our hearts 
for leading us from death to the land of the free, to 
dear America. We know all you say is true. We 
love and trust you. The facts you have given us 
tonight from our dead are wonderful. Every name 
and description was perfect. You have inspired us to 
do good. For your dear sake we will practice the 
Golden Rule in this new colony, called Ford. We 
long to meet you in Heaven. God bless you." 

"Dr. Frank, we know you are the most wonderful 
soul in Mars." • 

VIII. 

"O, I wish Alvin were here." "Trix, why work and 
worry so much over your conditions?" "Darling, I 
am tired of Loyal swearing at me and abusing me." 
"Lena and the Harris demons hypnotize him against 
you. They do all the swearing, not your husband. 
They want to part you and Loyal. Keep your hus- 

81 



band. They influence your friends and child against 
you. They try to keep you from work and prosperity. 
Al is lazy and wants you to be. He takes on the 
conditions of snakes and wants you to live the life he 
used to, he said he would not abuse you if I would 
give him money. He has formed bad habits. He 
cannot change his former habits. His mind is too 
weak and depraved to develop character. Al and Lena 
are lonely outcasts in poverty and darkness here. Their 
idleness causes people to hate them. Don't listen to 
his insane babble, Trix. I developed you to see only 
the beautiful. Doll, go to sleep. I will show you 
wonderful scenery in Venus and Mars. Our souls will 
visit new sights away from these earth-bound 
demons. " 

"Alvin, I can feel myself floating up, up. O, the 
ecstasy of being in your loving arms." 

"Darling, I am too happy to speak. "Doctor, where 
are we?" "I am surprised at you, Trix, after seeing 
Mars so many times." "O, yes, I see the hills and 
canals now below us, the land looks like a thousand 
little parks. O, if our poor, sorrowing, selfish world 
could be cultivated also." "If they were all as good 
as you are it would be the same." "Thank you, Alvin. 
I am only trying to be worthy of you, my darling, to 
prove there is no death. It took me years to 
learn that you are my other half, that God created 
us for each other." 

They walked and talked in a beautiful park and 
every moment they were together was a perfect day 
to the lovers. 

"Alvin, this brick walk looks something like the 
bricks do on earth. How graceful and beautiful these 
trees are. I love to walk with you in this garden. 

Alvin, look at those big cedar trees — such a long 
row of them. The people that own these grounds 
must be rich. Why do you smile, darling?" "Because 

1 own the grounds." "I never dreamed you were rich, 
Doctor, O, what a handsome fountain near this pretty 

82 



lake. How happy those young folks look in the dis- 
tance ; they look too young to make love to each 
other." "Trix, most of them died from old age on 
earth. They are twin souls, pet, promenading in 
Lover's Lane." "I am delighted, they are so young 
and happy. O Alvin, what a beautiful new building 
that is." "It is our future home, Trix." "In the rear 
I see tall apple trees in bloom. You are a beautiful 
soul, Doctor, full of romance, poetry and music. I 
love you, Alvin." "I adore you, Trix. How I enjoy 
this walk with you under such a variety of wonderful 
mysterious trees. How old are these magnificent 
trees?" "The cedars are about twenty years old. 
Come, love, I will show you our home. The first large 
building is our sanitarium. The other is our home. 
The long, artistic bridge connects the two buildings. 
The bridge was made so you would be a little nearer 
to me and to protect you from the rains when you 
wish, to visit my office." "It adds to the beauty of the 
place. How elegant everything looks, dear. How 
grand and artistic you are, my darling. Doctor, I can 
never express how much I love you. I am proud of 
your tall, handsome form, I enjoy your companionship, 
I always learn so many new and wonderful things 
from you, darling." 

"We will always study together, babe." 
"How perfectly grand you are to build such a home 
for me. Alvin, I love to stroke and pet your heavy 
black hair, yet your eyes are dark blue." "Come, babe, 
I will show you more of our future home. Trix, this is 
the broad driveway that leads to our home." "It is a 
palace, Doctor." "Trix, I worship you with all my 
life, soul and being, pet." "O those beautiful words 
make me so happy I can hardly breathe. Everything 
is so artistically arranged we will live here in ecstasy 
together." "Babe, our beautiful love for each other 
will increase forever. My little dove, we will grow 
closer and closer together." "Any one that would try 
to part us is lower than a dog, aren't they, Doctor?" 

83 



"They certainly are, pet, do not worry, dear heart, I 
can and will protect you. God has made you for me 
and has given me the j)Ower to protect my little wife." 
"Darling, how pretty the small shrubbery is just in 
front of those tall, light green trees. I used to love 
even the cottonwood trees of Dakota and the box elder 
that grew in our yard at home, when I was a child 
living in the land of the Dakotas. I remember how 
mamma would take us to the woods. We gathered 
baskets of rich black wild grapes by the banks of the 
old Missouri river and we children would swing in the 
long grape vines. Once I went boat riding all alone 
at sunrise, yet no harm ever came to me. It is strange 
I should think of childhood scenes here in these beau- 
tiful gardens in Mars." 

"You will always have memory and keep your in- 
dividuality, love." "I admire the golden sunshine 
among these trees and flowers. This is a grand and 
glorious home among the fruit and flowers. Home is 
Heaven when you are in my arms, Trix." "This warm, 
golden sunshine makes me feel so slight and happy, 
here the sun has a richer hue — so mellow a gold and 
blue. This planet seems like Heaven compared with 
earth, dear. What an elegant home you have prepared 
for me. It proves that you love me. How perfect the 
architecture is. What a large, beautiful door that is, 
with windows all around it. Why does it suddenly 
turn into gold and open by itself." "I made it appear 
golden as an emblem that I adore you, Trix." "Doc- 
tor, you have a wonderful power of making me see 
things in a golden light. My darkest clouds you line 
with gold." "Just look at the lining and never the 
clouds, love. Dove, I only developed your clairvoy- 
ance to see the good and beautiful." "What a pretty 
porch ! I love this elegant hall and furniture. This 
big leather rocking chair is big enough for us both." 
"That is why I bought it." "O you have turned on 
the rose-tinted light. This hall carpet is a very pretty 
golden brown with perfect violets woven here and 

84 



there. It looks as if some fairy hand had just picked 
them and gracefully scattered them all over the pretty 
carpet." "They did, dear, just for your dear sake." 
"Who bought the carpets, Alvin?" "My mother and 
daughter, pet." "What a big grand piano." "Trix, 
you must practice every day as soon as you come. I 
wish you would die tomorrow, love." "So do I, Doc- 
tor. I hate to go back to earth." "You must go, babe, 
it is a dreadful crime to kill yourself or another. If 
you should ever kill your dear self you would be two 
or three hundred years parted in darkness away from 
this home and me." "I could never be so foolish, 
Doctor. I love you too much." "I will never 
change." "How perfectly grand you are to build such 
a home for me." 

The handsome young man took her in his strong 
arms and kissed her soft pretty red lips a hundred 
times. "I am wild to come over here, so I can enjoy 
this elegant home with you, dear." "Do good, keep 
very busy and the time will soon pass, pet. Come, 
love, and try on your pearls and rings." "Doctor, I 
look like a rich princess in all this expensive hand- 
some jewelry. I never dreamed they had real jewels 
like these in Heaven. Alvin, I love this necklace, it is 
worth a fortune. How lovingly you clasp it around 
my neck." "A kiss for every pearl, young lady." 
Trix tenderly kissed each ring as he placed them on 
her fingers. "O what a wonderful gold crown with 
that yellow diamond in the center, Doctor. Where did 
you ever get such a big perfect diamond? I wish you 
had it madei nto a ring for yourself." "Jewels are for 
ladies, pet." Again and again she tried on each ring 
and bracelet. "A locket with your dear picture paint- 
ed on th einside ! I think I love this plain wedding 
ring the most." As she looked in the long perfect 
mirror at herself she fell in love with her own spiritual 
body clothed in bridal robes. She seemed a young 
queen and Doctor a tall handsome king pinning orange 
blossoms in her hair. The rooms were all decorated in 

85 



white rosebuds and forget-me-nots, and lilies-of-the- 
valley grew in golden urns on the mantel. "Come, 
love, into the hall. Our guests are waiting for us to 
lead the grand march. Remember every waltz is mine 
tonight. If you dance with another without my per- 
mission, I will cut off your pretty ears, you little 
fairy elf." "How dear of you to pin on this beautiful 
bridal veil embroidered with perfect pure white but- 
terflies and lilies. Butterflies are emblems of immor- 
tality. I am very fond of them. Doctor darling, 
please may I dance with this lovely veil on?" "If you 
will dance with me you may, Miss Vanity." "What 
inspiring music to dance by. How elegantly you 
waltz, Trix." "I just take on your conditions, dear." 
"Tonight is a little sample of your future life with me, 
my little pet." "How light I feel in this dainty fluffy 
dream of a dress. Doctor, I hope I can always dress, 
elegantly just to please you." "You may, love." 
"How gracefully you dance, Prince Charming. I think 
the same of you, dove. Every moment I am with you 
is Heaven to me. My pretty little Cinderella, it is past 
midnight ; you must turn into a mortal again." "And 
rags compared to this wedding gown." "Don't pout, 
love ; some day these visions will be a reality. You 
have had a taste of your future life with me. Trix, 
my love, some of us are going to concentrate for peace 
while we form an electric cross in the moonlight just 
over the war zone." "Doctor, may I go with you?" 
"After you rest you may, love." "What a band of 
angels follow Jesus to form this cross of fire. Doctor 
and Trix floated with them. Jesus walked and prayed 
among the soldiers ; some saw him ; others felt His 
presence. By the concentrated thoughts of His an- 
gels a grand cross illuminated the sky near the pale 
moon. Trix noticed the ghastly faces of the poor 
soldiers as they saw it. Each man threw down his 
arms and in silent supplication prayed to God for 
peace. Trix silently cried in Alvin's arms. The great 
cross was formed by many perfect minds condensing 

86 



electricity in the form of a perfect cross to prove to the 
discouraged soldiers God still lives and loves us. He 
will punish the instigators of this awful cruel war 
severely. The hard set faces of the ignorant rulers 
looked like insane brutes murdering innocent helpless 
lambs. Strong evil thoughts kept the men fighting 
on and on. "Doctor darling, I would give my life to 
stop this wholesale slaughter." "Trix, the poor men 
are destroying themselves. " She sensed great sorrow 
among the angels as they floated slowly up to their 
homes. "Doll, you must forget this suffering, as you 
and I are helpless in putting an end to this great dis- 
aster. Babe, my poor love, I will take you in my arms 
and show you a white race that once fought on these 
very grounds. I will show you the remnant that 
escaped after suffering a thousand deaths. They 
looked like tiny love birds floating away in the dis- 
tance seeking oblivion from the distress of a fallen 
race. They crossed the ocean, then floated northward 
in a strong current of electricity. Soon they saw the 
beautiful lights of the North. "The aurora borealis," 
another phenomena wonderful as the cross just wit- 
nessed. The brilliant aurora looked like a magnificent 
rainbow in the horizon. Toward dawn the colors seem 
to blend together and assume a wavy appearance. 
A wonderful variety of colors were present, — blue, yel- 
low and a red or blood-color. "O, Alvin, these white 
Eskimos resemble the Russians that are fighting now. 
What baby blue eyes and fair complexions those girls 
have that are dancing on the ice !" "Trix, I thought 
the same, but did not dare to tell you. What long 
golden hair they have. Look how gracefully they 
dance around fire made from whale oil." "Doctor dar- 
ling, why do I see so many handsome colors?" "My 
pet, it is charged with electricity, even if it is so far 
from the sun. The southern horizon is not half so 
beautiful, yet there is light there that is charged with 
electricity. My love, the belts of Saturn are radiant 
with electricity. Years ago these white Eskimos 

87 



escaped from war in mighty airships. Angels planned 
their escape and landed them safely here ; at that time 
this was a productive land,— corn, wheat and apples 
grew here. Intense cold has caused this terrible devas- 
tation. Canals would have prevented this ruin." 

"Doctor, I learn so much from being in your com- 
pan}r. I am proud of you, darling." 

"Trix, I adore you. Kiss me, pet, and I will take 
you to the South Pole. Trix, you are the sweetest girl 
in the universe. Cling closer to me, doll, you sweet 
angel. I love you more than ever. I would die for 
you, Trix." They floated on and on in charming 
ecstasy. It seemed only a little way that they had 
floated. But in reality they had traveled miles. "Trix, 
my love, why so silent?" "Darling, when I am in your 
arms I am too happy to speak." "Babe, you are like a 
child that loves to be rocked." Again they saw daz- 
zling lights, not so brilliant as the ones they just left. 
They discovered a vast area of land and found a dark 
race south of the Pole. "Trix, dear, some day this 
land will be under cultivation if they build canals to 
melt the snow. This is fine rich soil. There is lots 
of land in the world mortals have not yet discovered." 
Trix saw clairvoyantly as in a day dream that the 
prayers of sufifering humanity were heard. She saw 
that universal peace and prosperity ruled the world. 
In her vision the whites and blacks lived in harmony. 
New canals flowed through the land, and the earth 
blossomed like a perfect rose. Love and peace over- 
came hate and war. How beautiful this new earth 
seemed. How happy the people were. "Darling Al- 
vin, will my vision ever come true?" "Yes, doll, soon 
as there is universal industry and education." "Doc- 
tor, I worship you and pray that God will never let 
anyone part us." "I would rather be annihilated than 
parted from you, Trix, you benevolent little soul, kiss 
me." "Doctor, it is heaven to hear you say those 
precious golden words. Darling, I wish every one 
were as happy as we are." "Soon as they discover 



their spirit mate they will be. Trix, my love, I thank 
God we are made for each other. I could not love 
another but your own little self, dove." No one knows 
how she prayed so she could be with her twin soul. 
Every day seemed an eternity to the sweet soul. 
"Doctor, I want to die so I can be with you. The con- 
ditions are so that I just hate this world. I see selfish- 
ness, cruelty, poverty and awful war about me. I will 
be glad when I can leave.it forever, and can live with 
you in that dear new home." "Trix, I would love to 
have you wake up in the morning contented to live 
and do good a few years longer, pet." 'Tomorrow I 
hope I will remember all that transpired tonight. I 
often wake up thinking it is only a dream." "You 
know, dear, it is a reality. I love you. When you are 
in perfect health, your dreams are true." "I know 
they are, Doctor; that is why I want to die. I would 
love to go to you tomorrow. Loyal lacks romance 
and soul, he supports me, and is kind in his w r ay, yet 
so thoughtless and ignorant compared to you, darling. 
He is often cross and swears at me without any cause 
at all. He has made a slave of me. I long to study 
and improve my talents." "You shall as soon as you 
come to me. Trix, I have helpers in our home for 
you, so you can enjoy life and do as you please, after 
you get your music lessons. Trix, don't blame Loyal, 
he is obsessed by Lena and the Harris boys ; they are 
trying to part you. They influence him and others to 
abuse you: When he is angry, change the subject, pet. 
Loyal doesn't swear; it is Bill and Al obsessing him. 
Stay with him. You need his support. Enjoy your 
home and friends. Keep cheerful and make others 
happy, pet. Good-bye, love, I will return as soon as 
you wake." Trix woke up and say a large diamond 
like the one in her crown of the night before. Doctor 
placed it in her mouth. She felt it and saw it. "Dear, 
have I proven to you the dream is true?" "Yes, I 
know it is a fact." "Trix, we are more alive than you 
are." "I thank God there is no death, dear. How 

89 



perfectly grand to love and be contented forever/' 

IX. 

"Augusta, how pale and cold your mother looks. I 
will telephone for the Doctor at once." "Mama, are 
you better, dear heart." "My heart hurts me, baby 
doll, I have made my will in your favor, Augusta. I 
know I will pass away about twilight tonight. I see 
my mother with my ascension robe. I see many an- 
gels watching over me." "Papa, I am going to stay 
close to mama all day ; she thinks she will die tonight." 
"She may live for years yet." "Augusta, bury me in 
white with orange blossoms in my hair and white rose- 
buds in my hands ; keep lights around my head for 
two days. Bury me on the fourth day if you can. My 
soul may not be resurrected until the third day. Don't 
cremate me. I am so sensitive I would feel my own 
form burn. Take my rings now and keep all my 
jewels, this home and money. All is yours, my sweet 
child. Stay and keep house for your father, pet. Think 
of me so I can return to you often. Develop, love, so 
you will understand all I say by mental telepathy." 
"I will mama." "Keep calm, busy and cheerful after 
I am gone, for you know I will be young and happy. 
In just a few years you will be united to me in Heaven. 
Look upon my death as something beautiful, don't 
wail as the heathen do, for I will often return to you. 
I see Doctor smiling down at me and mother with my 
new white robes. Good-bye, Loyal and Augusta, the 
darkness obscures this lovely azure sunset, so please 
place lights closer to my head. Remember I will al- 
ways be perfectly happy. Doll, my sweet child, I love 
you. Good-bye." 

"Doctor, is my mother dead?" "Yes, dear." "No, 
but it can't be. Why does she smile so sweetly?" 
"Because she died so happy, my child." "How sweet 
and happy she looks. Papa, please put more lights 
around her bed. Mamma! My mamma — "

"Goldie, I would give the world if I had my mother 
back; it is only a few months since she died, yet it 
seems like years. I am so lonely." "Augusta, we will 
go into the silence and develop together, so you can 
hear and see her, dear." "I see her often, Goldie." 
"Then why do you cry, dear?" "Because I want to 
hug and kiss her. I long to hear her talk. I will get 
some paper and a pencil. Maybe she can write through 
my hand, dear. You hold my left hand, while a try." 
"O, Goldie dear, don't try, just go to sleep so she can 
come quickly. Your hand is moving now. Now we 
will read all she has written. 'My sweet children, sit 
a few minutes every other night and write. All that 
is on the paper is true. Augusta, love, I am often with 
you to love and protect you. At my death when you 
were crying those beautiful big brown eyes out, Doc- 
tor held me close to his broad chest, with his loving 
arms clasped around my waist. It was the happiest 
moment in my life, We floated up, up in love and 
ecstasy, through wave upon wave of ether, rising 
higher and higher in infinite, glorious space ; he was 
master of the air, as a good strong swimmer is master 
of the sea. Goldie, Doctor is my twin soul. I felt 
him clasp me to his heart again and again with a sav- 
age sob of wild delight. There is no greater heaven 
than our perfect love for each other, no artist, pen or 
tongue can express our new happiness. O if I had 
the power to thank God for this living ecstasy, how I 
thank Him for an eternal, noble, ideal companion all 
my very own, mine forever. The bridal tour is through 
the spheres. Eternity the honeymoon. ' " 

"O mama dear, I see your pretty young face close to 
my own. Tell me, mama, was my dream true last 
night?" "Yes, Augusta pet, most every night you 
come to my home, I hold you in my arms and pet you, 
just as Doctor used to do to me when I was with you 
on earth. It proves that the law of attraction is 
stronger than ever. Love draws you to me, Augusta 

91 



dear." "Mama, I am sure I was in your home some 
time before you saw me. You and Alvin were singing 
at the piano." "I was singing, but did not know you 
heard us. Augusta, your soul travels to mama be- 
cause I love you. My sweet child, keep a diary of all 
you see in the soul-world and all I tell you of this 
beautiful planet, Mars. Write a book of facts to com- 
fort those that suffer where my poor child must live a 
few years yet. Write so that honest investigators 
will know the truth about other worlds, Augusta doll. 
I have a swimming pool of our own made of marble. 
Beautiful stone steps lead down to it. Love, you swim 
so beautifully you will enjoy it when you come over 
here to mama. Enjoy life and keep young and cheer- 
ful. It is wrong to grow old. Thoughts and wrong 
living make one old. People think they must grow 
old at a certain age, hence they do. We are young and 
happy here, pet. Doctor and I walk, swim, drive, 
dance and study together. I take music lessons from 
him. Augusta, I am delighted that my own husband 
can teach me so much. ''He must be wonderful, for 
you are highly educated, mama dear." So are you, 
pet, my daughter, don't cry any more, your grief is 
my only sorrow, Rejoice because I am so happy. 
Dear, do you remember the poem I used to love on 
earth ? 

"Twilight and evening bell, 

And after that the dark ; 
And may there be no sad farewell 

When I embark." 

Darling, the day of my death was the happiest day 
of my life. For I was united to my twin-soul, the man 
I worship, and to my own sweet little mother. She 
and 1 live near each other. My love is stronger than 
ever. I am more sensitive. A mother's love never 
dies. Some night I will take you to see our magnifi- 
cent new home." "O mama, I saw it. A beautiful- 
angel took me all through it. I saw a great handsome 
rose light in the parlor. You and Doctor were singing 

92 



at the piano." "It was my mother that showed you 
our home. All that you saw was real, love." "O 
mama, I saw cute little tiny canary birds, horses, a 
little black dog and a green parrot with red in his 
wings, and I saw wonderful robes and jewels." "They 
all belong to your mother, dear. Doctor gave them to 
me. Isn't he noble and grand." "I am glad you are 
so rich and happy, mama." "You will be just as rich 
and happy some day, Augusta. All that I saw of Mars 
clairvoyantly I now realize is a fact. I know now that 
all planets are something similar. Things here are 
real. We are more alive than mortals." "Mama, your 
hair is so heavy and beautiful." "Augusta, I am 
young, strong and slender. I will never die again or 
grow old. Be happy and do good, now, that you 
know the soul is immortal. Some sweet day you will 
come over here with mama. After you come we will 
never be parted again." "Mama, will you show me 
your jewels. I long to see them again." "Yes, doll, 
come with me." "Augusta, how do you like my love- 
ly furniture, upholstered in blue, pink, silver and gold 
cloth? Our opera house is in rich red velvet. Doctor 
gave me all these jewels the day we were married. He 
placed this beautiful crown on my head and lovingly 
clasped these valuable pearls around my neck. He 
wished these handsome rings and bracelet on. Here is 
his picture in this locket he gave me. His daughter 
painted it for me. My little sweetheart, you may try 
on my robes." "Mama, how can you afford such rich, 
elegant gowns?" "Doctor is young, rich and hand- 
some." "I must not cry for you any more when I re- 
turn to earth." "O please don't, x\ugusta dear; it 
hurts me so when you cry. Let me show you one of 
my husband's robes. Did you ever see such a wonder- 
ful shade of blue and such perfect gold stars woven 
here and there? Here is a star and crescent on this 
purple sash, emblem of his rank. Doctor is very pop- 
ular and loved by every one. I worship him, Augusta 
darling. I know that two boys will soon make your 

93 



home happy again. Cupid will soon linger by your 
side. He will bring sunshine in your life. Enjoy his 
companionship, pet. Doctor is working in the colony 
at Ford. They obey him. The new colony is pros- 
pering wonderfully. They have just finished a new 
Scientific Church and a large school house. Classes 
are held in church. Make yourself as attractive as 
you can and take better care of your health. Enjoy life 
more, for you are talented, attractive and beautiful. 
Visit mama often, dear." "Mama, sometimes my spir- 
itual body travels to your elegant home, and you do 
not realize I am there, you are so interested in listen- 
ing to your husband. Then Addie and Eva bring me 
back to earth without disturbing your new happiness/' 
"Augusta, you only add to my great happiness. I love 
you more than ever, my sweet pure loving little girl. 
I would never come toe arth only for your dear sake. 
I return to develop and protect you. I love to pet 
you now, more than ever. Every day you grow 
sweeter and dearer to me, my angel child/' "Mama 
dear heart, since I cannot hug your sweet form I miss 
you so much." "Augusta, my little pet, soul or mind 
is all there is to love. Mind is immortal, it is that 
which loves and lives. My sweet child, if you wish to 
keep young and happy send out good thoughts and 
love every one. Love is health, life, power and happi- 
ness. Remember, my child, God is Love." "Mama 
dear, I often visit you here, you and your companion 
are so in love with each other you do not see me. I 
thank God you are so happy and silently return to my 
home on earth." "My sweet daughter, enjoy your 
future husband the same as I do Alvin, for he is your 
immortal companion, your twin-soul. Be his sweet- 
heart, my love." "Mama, I am tickled to death, I 
always was crazy over him. Good-bye, mama dear, 
you don't know how happy you have made me." 

"Trix, love, permit me to put on your sandals and 
wrap ; we will take our daily walk. Trix, I dare you 
to climb that hill in the distance with me." "Darling, 

94 



I would climb any height to be alone with you." "We 
are always alone, pet, when I wish to make love to you, 
you little sweetheart, I adore you. Look at this beauti- 
ful azure sunset. Our pretty lake has turned to silver, 
blue and gold as the sun sinks beneath its water. I 
the band playing on the shore. Come, Trix, we will 
dance to the music." "Darling, I love to dance with 
you, because you are handsome, tall and graceful"

"Goldie dear, I dreamed last night your husband 
came back with Edward. Please wear your wedding 
dress and look as nice as you can." "Augusta, I 
dreamed the same. We will run downstairs and bake 
a cake and some pies ; then return and dress up." 
"Goldie, I will pick some beautiful roses and decorate 
our home. Dear, help me arrange a handsome center- 
piece on the table of white rosebuds and little forget- 
me-nots. Now, Goldie, doesn't that look lovely?" "I 
will make the pies if you will make the cake, Augusta." 
They worked like bees. "Now that everything is fin- 
ished, we will take a warm bath and dress up." "O 
Goldie dear, how sweet you look." "Augusta, if I 
were as pretty as you are I would be happy." "Goldie, 
I hear mama say for us to wear flowers in our hair. 
O Goldie, look. I see two men coming up the walk. 
It is true what mama told me a few days ago." "My 
darling wife forgive me for being away so long. Don't 
cry, Goldie, are you ill, dear?" "O I have been so 
lonely without you, dear." "Look, Goldie, Edward 
has your cousin in his arms !" "How pretty they look 
together ; she so dark and slender ; he is fair, with blue 
eyes and golden hair." "Just like your own, my little 
wife." "Augusta, we have been parted so long I am 
crazy to marry you at once." "Soon as I can get 
my clothes made I will, Edward." "You look as sweet 
as any bride in the world in that dress." "With 
Goldie's help, I can get ready in a few days, dear 
heart." "Here is the postman, Augusta, you may read 
the letters to us." "I will read the one from Ford 

95 



first : 'My dear good friends : We don't know how 
to thank you for our miraculous escape. Our colony 
'Ford' is prospering. We fish, farm and own a large 
sawmill. We live happily with our young wives and 
babies. We trade among ourselves. Some of the 
farmers trade us fine pecans for rice and vegetables. 
We have plenty of everything. Most of us have 
money out at interest. 'Ford' is a large town now. 
We will never fight our brothers again. We have 
learned to love our wives and homes too much to ever 
leave them. We pray that all nations will enjoy the 
peace and comforts of home as we do. Life is beauti- 
ful to us now. We love our homes and hate war more 
than ever. War creates poverty and hate. It destroys 
happiness, it deprives us of manhood and love. We 
have the privilege of developing our minds now. If 
the soul is not developed men become brutes and de- 
generate. We study and keep busy on the farm. The 
result is we have perfect health and happiness. Some 
of our colony have gone to Alaska and have found rich 
gold mines. The colony in Alaska they have named 
Burke. In the center of this town is a large sanitar- 
ium and school. We have a fine new temple where 
we hold seances three times a day. We have ten good 
psychics we keep busy all the time. The church pays 
them a good salary. Towns near by spend their even- 
ings drinking, eating, fighting and gambling. We sing, 
pray, communicate with angels. After each seance we 
dance an hour; then retire perfectly happy. We own 
some very valuable gold mines discovered by our in- 
visible friends. Dr. Frank is a wonderful soul. All 
has turned out just as he said it would. Dr. Frank 
and our invisible friends help us and those in Alaska. 
They sent us enough money to build a new school- 
house. We send you a check of one hundred dollars. 
We feel as if we did not pay you half what your ser- 
vices were worth. We owe our liberty and happiness 
to you and Kate Burke. Charles Ford and Flora have 
a new home and a little son George. " 

96 



"What a glorious, satisfying letter. I would love to 
see them all." "Perhaps you may some day, Goldie." 

"Why can't we dance here anyway?" 

"A waltz !" 

"A one-step !" 

"No, let's have an old-fashioned Virginia Reel." 

Gaiety rang through the house till late that night. 
Two tired, but very happy girls closed their eyes short- 
ly after midnight. 

Three days later witnessed a holy marriage. 
* * * * * 

"I call mine own — Oh, come to me ! 
Love answers back, I come to thee, I come to thee." 

"Goldie, how sweet Augusta looks in her filmy, 
fluffy wedding dress standing under that magnificent 
wedding bell, covered with tuberoses and orange blos- 
soms. It hangs just where our dear old Xmas tree 
used to stand." "Goldie, I am glad you are her brides- 
maid; how sweet you look in your wedding dress." 
"I bought her that large bouquet of lilies of the valley." 
"You are extravagant, Goldie." "I earned the money, 
myself, Weseley." "The music has started." They 
saw the aviary door slowly open, yet not a soul stood 
on that side of the house. Two little canary birds flew 
on the Bible the minister held, then on Augusta's 
flowers, and began to sing sweetly. Her friends stood 
spell-bound. "Run for some water, Weseley, Augusta 
has fainted." "My poor little wife, I am sorry I was 
in such a hurry to marry you. You have overworked 
sewing and must rest now." "I did not faint. I was 
only in a trance. At least I felt mama hug and kiss 
me. She influenced the birds to come to me." "Aug- 
usta, my sweet little bride, I am the happiest man in 
the world." "Goldie dear, will you help me pack our 
suit case? We are going up in the mountains on our 
honey-moon. You and your husband come and go 
with us." "My sweet cousin, as soon as I take off 
your pretty long wedding veil I will ask my husband 

97 




Augusta Mayjj 



if I can go." "There is plenty of room in our auto- 
mobile for us all." Goldie hurried to find Wese. 
"Weseley, we are invited to go to the mountains for a 
few days; will you go, dear?" "No, Goldie, I hate the 
mountains ; run and get supper now. I am hungry 
for these swell eats." "O Cousin Goldie, how deli- 
cious your dinner is. I am so sorry to go without 
you." 

XII. 

"Augusta, little sweetheart, another year of happi- 
ness has gone ; our little son is a month old today, he 
looks just like you, Edward. He is the cutest thing 
I ever saw. He is a little pig." "Augusta dear, as I 
woke this morning I saw our invisible friend, Dr. 
Frank and mother looking: at our child." "Ed, I of- 
ten see mama smile and kiss our baby. I know our 
babv sees her. he smiles at her. Mama told me he 
could see her." "How wonderful that he is born with 
clairvoyance." "That is because he is mother's little 
angel. I know he is hungry again, mama's poor little 
abused darling child. Maybe he cries because he is 
going to cut a tiny toothen." "Pet, he is too young 
yet." "Edward, I worship you and our baby." "Which 
do vou love the most, dear?" "You, of course, Mr. 
Tealousy." "Augusta, my sweetheart, those words 
have made me perfectly happy. Tomorrow I will buy 
you a new rubv rins:." "And tomorrow I will hug you 
to death, Mr. Darling." "Dovie, never wait until to- 
morrow." "Ed, I am as happy here with vou as 
mother is in Mars." "That is because God made you 
for each other, " softlv whispered Trix. "My dearest 
child, you can be perfectly happy anywhere with your 
soul-mate. Do enjoy each other and get all you can 
out of life. Say your prayers, my sweet child, and sleep 
peacefully, knowing angels are watching over vou and 
protecting you, pet." Trix prayed earnestly that God 
would hear their prayers and that they would be a 
united family in Mars. "Trix, now that your child is 

98 



sleeping, I will take you home again, you little run- 
away. Babe, you must not forget your music lesson 
again." "I will make up for lost time, my darling 
husband." "Trix, my own, I want you to be my com- 
panion in every sense of the word, my beautiful wife." 
"Alvin, you are just the kind of a husband any woman 
would worship. I am proud of you, darling. I love 
you more than ever." 

"O, Edward, please wake up." "What is the trouble, 
my little, wife? Is our baby sick or hungry?" "I 
dreamed mama came back and pointed to a large oil 
painting that covered one side of the wall. I noticed 
her little white hand was covered with precious rings. 
The painting was called Love and Hate. In the sky of 
this wonderful picture I saw the Holy City, painted in 
silver, gold and blue. It was slightly veiled among the 
white fleecy clouds, and the city and the clouds blend- 
ed softly together, over the mountain-tops. The sun- 
light from the city shed its beams below on the moun- 
tains and valley. In this picture my mother wore a 
crown, dressed in white silk and soft lace ; she looked 
up and smiled in the face of a tall handsome gentle- 
man with dark heavy hair, large dark blue eyes and a 
broad pale face. His lips were full and large. He 
wore long flowing purple robes with gold stars woven 
in the wonderful heavy silk cloth. A bright soft light 
mingled around his well shaped head. He held my 
mother close to his broad chest. Her long white veil 
floated in the breeze. Gold butterflies clasped her 
white embroidered sandals. Soft lights floated around 
their crowns. Two little children were playing by the 
marble fountain nearby. A long canal flowed in the 
distance, its foaming waves were winding in and out 
the hills and among the tall green trees. In the bushes 
by the large gate two hungry beggars held out their 
hands for food and clothes. A small ragged tunic was 
all they wore. Sin and deception marred their cruel 
hard faces. Their wicked thoughts were revealed by 
the dark aura around their heads. The woman was 



99 



small and dark, the man light, with small gray eyes 
and a long narrow face and large nose. I could see 
ignorance and crime written on their ugly faces. The 
three beggars stood outside the gate crying to come 
in, long green and yellow snakes crawled around their 
feet. Light had vanished from them ; good angels had 
forsaken them. 'O mama, what does this painting 
mean?' I cried. 'It means to raise your children to be 
Christlike and do all the good you can in the world. 
Teach your children all you know. Keep them at 
home, close to your loving heart. Augusta, my dar- 
ling, you are perfect. I only want to impress on your 
mind to raise your children just as perfectly, so that 
we will be a united family after your transition.' I 
said, T will obey you, mama, and raise our little 
Charles LeRoy to be Christlike.' 'Come and visit us 
often, Augusta, love, I know your soul has learned to 
travel alone. Good-bye, my pet, you dear, sweet, pure 
little mother.' Edward, I am going to give all my 
time to you and our son." "Dear, I intend to give him 
a fine education, Augusta, my beautiful sweetheart. 
Rest now, I don't want you to overwork. What a 
charming little beauty you are, pet. "I begin to think 
it is true; my angel mother often tells me the same." 
"I admire your psychic powers, sweetheart." 

And the next night, Augusta said, "Edward, last 
night I visited mama again in spirit. She is so happy 
I must never cry for her again. I could not disturb her 
happiness. I remember all she and Doctor said." 
"That is because my little queen is highly educated. I 
married you for brains, Augusta, knowing that our 
children would be perfect." "I am glad you were too 
modest to mention that before marriage, Edward. I 
think a man should be just as pure as a woman." "So 
do I, dear. Sweetheart, tell me all your mother and 
her husband said." "Their conversation was some- 
thing like our own." "Augusta, I wish I could have 
heard them. I am so anxious to know just how they 
live in other worlds. My precious wife, I will hold 

100 



you close in my arms while you tell me all they said." 
"Doctor was sitting in a large handsome rocking chair 
with mama in his arms. They were alone in their ele- 
gantly furnished home. Doctor held a book in one 
hand. He said, "Babe, I adore you more than ever. 
I am delighted with your music and studies. I love 
to hear you sing to me, Trix." "I never could sing like 
you do, Doctor, even if I should study a million years." 
"Our love is immortal, we will never be parted again. 
Lena and those wicked Harris fiends cannot harm my 
little wife now. I thank God and His angels for your 
glorious resurrection. How divine and angelic you 
looked after your transmission. My own, my doll 
babe, you are all in all to me. I adore you more than 
ever. The sunshine seems all the brighter after the 
darkness and sorrow you once suffered caused by 
Lena and these Harris demons." "What a royal dear 
husband you are. What sweet memories are mine for 
you made love to me while I was on earth." "Dear, 
our love is unchanging and more beautiful than ever, 
dove." "My darling husband, I don't know how to 
thank you for this elegant palace. O how I enjoy 
you and this lovely new home. This is the dearest 
home I ever saw. I am so glad this is a real material 
home. My happiness is greater than I ever dreamed 
of." "Trix, I would give my life for you. I went 
down in darkness and purgatory to protect you from 
the insults of Bill and Al. In my waking fancies I 
dream of you. In my study I write poems to you. In 
my office I work for you. I see your sweet face among 
the flowers, trees and sunshine. Your companionship 
is Heaven to me. I would not accept Heaven without 
you. There is no sorrow or darkness with you, only 
radiant sunshine. How glorious this love is. Your 
devotion is paradise to me. Your songs are sweetest 
music that lulls my soul to rest. Your breath is 
fragrant as roses, your golden brown hair retains the 
sunshine. All our sorrow was nothing to this great 
happiness. It seems like a dream now." Trix kept 

101 



rocking to and fro in the golden sunlight among the 
birds and flowers that her husband had placed there 
to make her happy. She was sewing on some dainty 
little garments that are so dear to every woman's 
heart; her husband was reading to her. He closed the 
book with a sign and silently rocked her in his arms. 
"Trix, now that I am rich, I will promise never to 
leave your side again, my sweet wife. I adore you, 
babe, my poor dove.'' 

"Babe, love is the greatest gift God has ever given 
to man. The eternal companionship of his spirit-mate 
is immortal happiness. The union of spirit-mates is 
a holy sacrament. Their love is the secret of youth 
and immortality. Our. great yearning for each other 
is in the past. God has heard our prayers. What 
God hath joined together, let no man put asunder. 
My wife, my love, we will take a pleasure trip to 
Venus today." 

Then I cried out, "O mama, may I go with you?" 
Edward, she stepped back, surprised that I was in her 
home. "Augusta, love, I was so happy listening to 
Alvin I did not know you were here. When he talks 
or sings to me I am spell-bound and all attention is his, 
my daughter. You and Goldie may visit Venus with 
us." "Mama, her soul cannot travel yet." "Augusta, 
Goldie often goes to Venus, but she is not far enough 
developed to remember her travels. Her spirit-mate 
takes her there ; he has prepared a beautiful home for 
her in Mars. Some day we will all live in Venus or 
Saturn. Then we will never be parted again. Great 
souls are always united." 

Alvin spoke to Trix's mother : "Adelaide, you guide 
the two girls. I will take Trix while we visit the dark 
side of Venus. We will visit the brighter side later." 
As quickly as a thought they were there. "It is not 
nearly so dark as we thought it would be. O, Ade- 
laide, look at the aurora borealis." "Girls, these lights 
are around the ice. Both sides of the planet are in- 
habited." "Alvin, I can see everything here clear as 

102 



day. I see more people floating than we did on our 
previous visit." "Trix, my doll, you often forget your 
transition from earth to Mars." "O, the canals are 
like the ones in Mars. I feel the electricity in the air. 
I enjoy their graceful flying in the air. They have 
no wings, yet they swim in the ether faster than fish." 
''Trix, the Venusians have more light and energy. 
They are nearer the life-giving Sun. I will be glad 
when you and all our loved ones are translated to this 
planet. These angels work for knowledge harder than 
mortals do for money. The cold country or what 
astronomers call the dark hemisphere, is lighter than 
it seems from earth. It i$ lighted by electricity." 
"Alvin, this trip to Venus is just another honeymoon." 
"Your bridal tour will last forever, love. Trix, we will 
always live in perfect rapture together from this on." 
"Alvin, my darling, I worship you. All my past sor- 
row on earth seems like a dream that lasted but a 
moment. Trix, it did not last a moment compared 
to eternity. Forget your earth-life, it was too short 
to think of." "I have forgotten all but Goldie and 
Augusta. I only live for you, Alvin ; it is Heaven to 
be near you." "I adore you more than ever, my 
beautiful Trix. Come, we will express our love in 
song. Today words fail to express our great new 
happiness, babe, my wife, kiss me, pet." "I thank 
God for you, Alvin, my darling." 

They floated to the sunny side over a long narrow 
canal. They saw gigantic pumping stations which 
were run by electricity. It pumped the cold, sweet 
water down from the snowy mountains to the sunny 
side. The cold water flowed on to a clear blue lake. 
This lake supplied the city below them with pure cold 
mountain water the year around. These highly intel- 
ligent people were masters of Venus. Some of these 
Venusians were angels that once lived on earth ; they 
still retain their individuality and memory. Soft vel- 
vet-like clouds floated over their heads. The canals 
caused it. The ground was carpeted with sweet- 

103 



scented flowers. "It is night on earth. I am going 
down and get Kate Burke," said Adelaide. Dr. Frank 
was praying by her bedside. Kate smiled in her sleep. 
Her soul soon drifted away from its sorrow and she 
and Dr. Frank joined us in our pleasure. "O, Dr. 
Frank, what a beautiful land of sunshine and flowers. 
Kate, my sweet angel, you will need this recreation 
after working so hard among the poor soldiers and the 
colony." "Kate, my child, why do you worry so much 
since you have rescued so many souls from that awful 
war?" "Adelaide, my pure angel, I want to leave the 
world forever to be with Dr. Frank. I think he is the 
grandest man in the universe." "We know he is your 
spirit-mate, Kate. Here he comes with a delicious 
beverage charged with electricity; it was a tonic, bet- 
ter than champagne, yet not in the least injurious. 
"Kate, you dear soul, will you take a pleasure trip with 
me to our future home?" "Yes, dearest one. In a 
few minutes they were in a white palace surrounded 
with every luxury. In the aviary she saw a large 
cage of canary birds feeding their young. In one apart- 
ment of the cage were a tiny yellow singer and little 
mate not over an inch long, and about one-fourth 
of an inch thick. A Japanese nobleman gave 
them to Dr. Frank. Fie also gave him a set of wonder- 
ful blue dishes trimmed with gold. Gold was used for 
jewels and the home, but never for money. "Kate, 
permit me to introduce you to Goldie, my assistant's 
fiancee. Roy often attracts her soul to his own, as I 
do you, doll. Come and see my library. Look, Goldie, 
I will press the button." A large glass window opened 
by itself, at the same time sweet music began to play. 
Suddenly the room was filled with electricity and 
warm sunshine. They all felt like dancing to the 
music. The music came from a large pipe organ in 
the adjoining room. The pipes were made of gold. 
The wood work looked like golden oak. Off from 
the great parlors was an assembly hall for opera and 
all kinds of entertainment. Another magic button was 

104 



pressed and the great hall was filled with a yellow 
radium light that made the rich purple curtains look 
like burnished copper. "Roy, you must be wealthy 
to afford all this luxury." "Goldie, my sweetheart, we 
learn the different uses of electricity in school. Venus 
is alive with it; I just borrow a little from the Sun. 
There is a great vast wealth in space. We all should 
enjoy it abundantly. In every planet there is wealth 
enough for all. Goldie, life is too short on earth to 
worry and fight over money. To develop the soul is 
wealth of mind. Education is the most valuable jewel 
in the world. Money is nothing compared to it. Dar- 
ling girl, I beg you to study hard as it develops the 
soul and makes the face beautiful." "Roy, dear, now 
I will study hard just to be pretty." "Goldie, I owe 
Dr. Frank a great deal more than I can ever pay ; he 
educated me, he is the most marvelous man I ever 
knew. His spirit-mate is Kate Burke ; she is an angel 
that has done all in her power to make the world 
more beautiful." "Roy, I am jealous of this angel as 
you call her." "No cause to be, dear, she worships 
Dr. Frank as I do you. God has created an eternal 
companion for every one. Here we only want the 
one that belongs to us. You have no reason to be 
jealous." "I know Wese and Ed looked up to her as 
an angel of Love and Mercy. I hate to see you admire 
any one but myself. I know she is good and pretty. 
I am selfish, Roy." "Goldie, shame ! When you are 
fully developed, you will regret such thoughts." "Roy, 
you are tall and finely proportioned. I think you are 
handsome. I admire your black hair and perfect blue 
eyes. Why do I see so much light around your head, 
Roy?" "It is my soul you see, Goldie. Light and love 
is life, dear. Without you I could not live, but a few 
years. Goldie, some day you and I will be like Trix 
and Alvin. Their love is the most perfect love I have 
ever seen." "Roy, their devotion is perfectly lovely. 
In spite of past sorrows and the demons that tried to 
part them they are united and perfectly happy. I hope 

105 



God will let me come to you soon, Roy. I long to live 
happily with you in this eternal sunshine surrounded 
and loved by such beautiful intelligent angels." "You 
and I will be an angel as soon as you come up here. 
An angel is man and wife. All angels are spirit-mates, 
dear girl. ,, "Roy, don't you think it is time to return 
to earth with our girls ?" "Yes, Adelaide, it is past the 
time they should wake up." "Trix, we will stay and 
see this gigantic machinery all run by electricity. 
Babe, here is a great steel pipe that pumps ice cold 
water down from the cold mountains thousands of 
miles away. Mortals could do the same if they would 
study more and fight less. All the war money, if 
used properly, would make the world about as per- 
fect as Mars is, the glame and radium keep the angels 
young and energetic. People are more intelligent and 
Christlike here. The more w r e progress the more God- 
like we are. Dearest, all sin is ignorance or illness. 
The soul that continues to sin will surely die." 

"Come, Trix and Alvin, back to my home. I want to 
show you our city, then our home." "My children, 
when I go on to Saturn I will give you this home. I 
have another place near Dr. Frank, who is a great 
missionary to Earth and Mars." "Why is Saturn your 
next planet?" "Because we go where we belong. 
Christ went from Earth to Heaven, a greater distance 
than I am going. We go to the place we deserve, 
whether it is Heaven or Purgatory. Our mind takes 
us just where we belong. We cannot escape the con- 
ditions we have made on Earth. Many millionaires in 
Heaven were beggars and prisoners on Earth." "Wil- 
lard, why are you and your other half so rich and 
happy?" "Because we have done good and love God 
and His angels." "Trix, my pet, I yearn to go on, to 
learn more of God's ways." "I too pray for wisdom, 
Alvin." "I will help you in your studies, little girl. 
My little wife, our love exalts our souls to realms 
Elysian. It is Heaven to have you by my side, pet. 
God bless your pure soul." "Alvin, I thank God we 

106 



are now en rapport with God and Archangels. How 
gloriously happy you have made me, my darling hus- 
band. I worship you." "Babe, if you don't, I will get 
some one else to. Don't cry, love, I was only teasing 
you. Accept this check as a peace offering. I will 
place the precious paper in your little yearning palm 
soon as you kiss me a few times." "Darling, I enjoy 
kissing you far more than spending your money. I 
am going to buy the most elegant robe in the city just 
for you to hug, Alvin." "You May dove. My wealth 
is to make you happy, Trix." "Alvin, I enjoy your 
wealth for it keeps us together. It would kill me to 
part from you." "Don't worry, love, that is an impos- 
sibility now. Heaven is ours, dove." t 

"Trix, my love, I am glad we are home again. Now 
I shall work hard to make our home like Willard's." 
"Doctor, I love this home and don't see how you 
could improve it. Doctor, so long as I am with you 
I am perfectly contented. I noticed you resemble the 
men in Venus. You are tall, intelligent, with the form 
of Apollo. You are divine." "Life is Heaven to me, 
yet I would rather die than be parted from thee, Trix. 
My affection is stronger than your own love. Trix, 
my pet, it is marvelous how beautiful the planet Venus 
is, both hemispheres are utilized." "Doctor, I cannot 
understand how they can raise such large red apples 
and so much perfect fruit where it is so cold." "Trix, 
don't you remember the hot houses heated by elec- 
tricity?" "Yes, darling, I wondered how they could 
make the glass so thick and clear." "Men in great air- 
ships take the glass there, and return with gold, silver 
and fruit. Goods are exchanged, hence the cold and 
hot hemispheres are equalized. Those wonderful 
canals are the secret of their wealth and perfect cli- 
mate." "Even the mystic caverns and subterranean 
lakes were illumined by electricity." "It takes the 
place of sunshine, even if most of the current comes 
from the sunny side of Venus." "O how I enjoyed 
visiting those wonderful glass homes surrounded by 

107 



snow. How comfortable and warm a little radium 
made each happy home. We will call them Angel 
Eskimos, love." "Yes they were very white and pretty 
and could communicate with friends on the sunny side 
by thought-transference. " "Some were educated on 
the sunny side." "They visit back and forth the same 
as we do. They were younger and poorer in the frozen 
region. Because the winters were long. The sun's 
electric field is greater than we can conceive of." "I 
admired those wonderful great cement pipes that car- 
ried the ice water to the sunny hemisphere." "Trix, 
the Earth could be made more beautiful if the people 
would do the same as they do in Venus and Mars. 
I hope they will follow our example some day. They 
must build canals in order to save their land and 
make the deserts valuable farming land. My darling, 
I wish we could make the poor old world more beauti- 
ful." "So do I, love." "My wife, the world needs 
universal education. Only a few of the millions on 
earth have a distinct aura and they are the educated, 
the religious. They are those who study and pray." 
"Alvin, I thank you with all my soul for teaching me 
how to think good thoughts." "Love, if your thoughts 
had been wicked, or you had killed your dear self, we 
would not have been united for hundreds of years. 
Continue to love and obey me, pet, and you will wear 
diamonds and be happy. If you don't, I will cut off 
those pretty little curls." "Alvin, I can see beautiful 
lights around your handsome head. I wish my aura 
was as perfect and distinct as your own." "Trix, our 
mind is a powerful electric dynamo capable of marvel- 
lous expansion. Our bodies have their full growth 
now, dear. Our minds will continue to improve 
through all eternity." "Alvin darling, my greatest 
desire now is to cultivate my mind, so I can be a 
perfect companion to you." "My sweet little dove, 
that is why I have accumulated this wealth for you, so 
you have nothing to do but study books and music. 
I will teach you, pet. My wealth and love is all yours, 

108 



Trix." "I worship you, Alvin. I only want your 
love. I am proud of you, dear." "Trix, that sweet 
woman, Kate Burke, is dying. Dr. Frank has called 
me to assist him to drive away those Harris dogs." 
"Alvin, may I go and help you? I love her for she has 
done so much good in the world. Please may I go, 
darling?" "No, dove, it is not safe for any lady to be 
near those low insane Harris fiends. You may finish 
your book while I am gone. Don't worry, pet, I will 
not be away long. I will take you out swimming to- 
morrow and buy you another new robe if you do not 
cry." "They use such obscene low language I hate to 
have you go." "Roy, please come and help us to pn> 
tect an innocent, noble soul. Adelaide and Lily just 
told me Kate was dying. I am on my way now. I 
will met you at her bedside." "Alvin, there are the 
Harris demons and their relatives." "Roy, you whip 
Bill and I will knock Al down every time he gets up." 
"Dr. Frank, I should judge by the looks of him he will 
never be able to get up." "You are a coward, Al, to 
try to mar this pure soul. Your parents and relatives 
should whip you instead of encouraging you in your 
insane crimes." "Adelaide, I will call Edward to 
help." "Augusta, he is at home, sound asleep with 
your dear slender form in his arms. Listen, Augusta, 
and learn how twin souls worship each other. Augus- 
ta, love, teach the world how sacred and beautiful the 
philosophy of soul mates is." "Dr. Frank, I am 
dying. I thank God you came to save me. Did he 
really create us for each other?" "Doll, don't worry, 
I know He did. We do not make any mistakes over 
here, my own love. Your fear and suffering is all 
over, place your pretty head on my chest, and I will 
carry you home, my sweet pure angel." "O, Doctor, 
how lovely death is ! Words cannot express my new 
happiness." "Thank God, Dr. Frank has floated safely 
away with that noble soul, Kate Burke." 

"Alvin, my darling, see, doesn't she look sweet in 
her modest ascension robes? How sweetly she smiles, 

109 



nestled safely in Dr. Frank's strong young arms." 
"Roy, I thank God Kate is safe and happy with the 
man God created for her." "She has suffered persecu- 
tion and abuse for years ; all her suffering was caused 
by Lena Colby and those lazy Harris fiends. She can 
never suffer again with Dr. Frank's protection." 

Dr. Frank's joyous voice rang out in the distance, a 
melodious new song: 

"Now the mantle immortal around is thrown, 
Thy soul thrilled with songs that invite to our zone, 
And thou greetest in rapture thy 'bride' all thine own, 
Then listen no longer, beloved, for me, 
Now I am ever forever with thee." 

"Kate, my sweet bride, I thank God you are safe at 
last. Yet you are so weak from fear, you little cow- 
ard. I will have our helpers apply electrical music 
over your new spiritual body. How slender and beauti- 
ful your form is. Rest your pretty young face on my 
breast. Cast away all fears from your mind. Kiss me, 
love." "I hope you enjoy your first bath in Mars." 
What a wonderful plunge, the blue water was clear 
as crystal, the marble steps that led to the perfect 
fountain were polished white marble. After the bath 
electricity from an organ was applied over her hair, 
face and form. She had never experienced such 
ecstasy as when the pulsing music penetrated 
every cell of her being. She felt so light and young. 
Her happiness at this new treatment knew no bounds. 
Kate's mother dressed her in a new fluffy white lace 
dress and led her back to Dr. Frank. As he clasped 
her in his arms she cried for joy. "My darling Kate, 
don't cry, it will spoil your pretty eyes." "How beau- 
tiful you look, my sweet queen. I adore you. You are 
all in all to me. Kate, if you will hug and kiss me I 
will permit you to see the most beautiful child in the 
universe. Now you may look in the mirror, love, and 
you will see her." "Dr. Frank, is that beautiful young 

110 



girl myself?" "We are alone, so it must be you, 
dear. I would hate to be so small. I would not 
like to wear such long heavy hair as you have." 
"Death has made me beautiful. I thank God for this 
new face and form." "Kate, your past beautiful 
thoughts have made your face young and pretty. Our 
mind keeps us young and beautiful." "Dr. Frank, you 
must have a wonderful mind. You are handsome." 
"I worship you, darling." "What a lovely home you 
have for me near the lake, among the trees and flow- 
ers." "Come out in the sunshine, Kate, I will row you 
on the lake." 

"Hand in hand the lovers go, 

Every nook of nature through ; 

Each for other were they born ; 
Each the other best adorn." 

"Dr. Frank, I wonder what caused my death?" 
"Fear and constant abuse from the Harris fiends. 
Your fear of them and constant worry attracted the 
scoundrels to you. My little wife, your tumultuous 
thoughts kept me away. I had to fight my way to 
your bedside. Mentally we will make a deep grave 
in the earth far below us now, and bury all the sad 
past. We must never think of our sorrows again. 
They have all passed away forever. From this on you 
will be my bride, love, always close to my side. Noth- 
ing can ever part us now. Our minds have lifted us 
up out of darkness, prosperity smiles on us. God's 
Sun will forever shine on us. Cupid will be our eternal 
companion. We will grow closer and closer together. 
You are my life, Kate, I adore you. God has united 

us." 

* * * * * 

"Trix, my love, permit me to put on your new white 
sandals. I want you to witness the most glorious 
sight you have ever seen." "O what will I see, dar- 
ling?" "Something new and gorgeous, love. My 
wife, you remember while on earth the most beautiful 
adventure in your life was death." "That is true, be- 
lli 



cause you protected me from those wicked Harris de- 
mons. How divine of you to clasp me in your loving 
arms and soar up, up on electrical waves to this beauti- 
ful home, where I am always safe with you. My pre- 
cious darling, I worship you for what you have done 
for me." "It was only a pleasure to protect you, doll. 
Here we are, babe, just in time for the translation of 
our good friend Elizabeth and her twin soul. ,, "How 
sweetly they smile at us." "Trix, they have gradually 
prepared their minds to ascend in radiant light and 
glory." "Alvin, it is a shame for them to leave this 
grand and expensive home." "I know it is a gorgeous 
home, love. Think of the grand new joys they w T ill 
experience in their new mansion away in the Central 
Sphere." "O look, Alvin, their son and daughter who 
are twin souls are going to ascend with them. I hope 
our children will go with us when we are ready for a 
higher plane." "Our little pets must learn to talk first, 
darling. All they can lisp is Da and smile. They 
are something like you, dear heart." Soon they heard 
a band of angels from Saturn singing softly near the 
couples that were soon to go on to a higher plane. 
They embraced them with a radiant smile. "Trix, we 
will return to visit you often and communicate to you 
from our new home of homes." Gradually a brilliant 
light from Heaven enveloped them. In a twinkling 
of an eye they ascended, their perfect forms 
lighter and brighter than ever. As they watched the 
golden pathway of light they knew God's Holy angels 
would carry them on on to the great electric Central 
Sphere, there to dwell in a new mansion of Light and 
Glory, to live in perfect ecstasy and sweet harmony 
forever. "My pure sw r eet wife, that was the grandest 
and most glorious sight I ever witnessed. It proves 
the power of God is greater than we ever dreamed of 
or could realize. I commend our souls to Him for- 
ever, my dove. Our own divine translation will be 
just as sacred and beautiful as the one w r e have just 
witnessed, dear. Our minds are growing more power- 

112 



ful every day. Our forms more ethereal and lighter. 
Trix, my angel doll, some day we will be all light and 
powerful." "I think you are now, my darling husband, 
my life, my all." "Trix, my sweet wife, how would 
you like to take another bridal tour to Venus?" "Just 
so we can be alone, Alvin." "We will kiss our babies 
and their nurse good-bye and go for a few days." 
"Look, Alvin, she is pulling his hair." "That is be- 
cause he wants her doll." "They are too sweet to 
leave a moment." "Just as you say, Trix, we will stay 
at home." Trix began to cry, then both of the chil- 
dren cried because their mother did. "Why do you 
cry, love? ,, "Because I want to take our babies with 
us." That would be impossible ; they would not have 
the proper care. You must go with me alone if you 
will not cry love." "I want to go at once,. Alvin." 
"You may, doll ; permit me to put your sandals and 
cloak on." "How sweet you look, Trix. You are the 
biggest baby I have, love ; the next time you cry I am 
going to beat you good and plenty." "If you do I 
will tell your mother." "I am in a hurry to go, Alvin." 
"What a perfect day this is, darling. I am so happy 
when we can float alone together. Just you and I, 
dear." 

"Alvin, I will get even with you for rolling me in 
the snow." "You may, doll." 

It is now winter in the coldest part of Venus. "Trix, 
I brought you here so you wotild nestle more closely 
in your husband's arms." "Alvin, I always get just as 
close to you as I can, you precious treasure." Winters 
are very short here ; on the frozen side of Venus is to 
be found species of infinite warmth, for it is the tryst- 
ing ground of a host of lovers. "I can hear our babies 
crying, Alvin ; take me home so I can rock them to 
sleep ; then we will return." In a few moments, Alvin 
was rocking his tiny son, and Trix her baby girl as the 
pretty nurse stood by thinking how foolish they were 
to return. Soon as the babies were sound asleep and 
kissed, Trix and Alvin again circled up from Mars in 

113 



a great electrical wave of golden light to visit Venus's 
mighty white plain. From afar it looked like a sleepy 
frosted moonstone set softly into the brow of night. In 
an instant they approached it. To Trix still unused to 
heavenly descents alone, a mighty ocean of pure white 
seemed to shoot out and engulf the universe. Alvin 
laughed merrily as she caught and caught at a breath 
that would not come. "How, how can I ever learn to 
float as gracefully as you do?" she whispered finally. 
"Alvin, I have no desire to learn long as you carry me 
so easily." His great voice laughed and echoed over 
the white plain. Trix looked curiously about, fearing 
some one would see her learning to float. Alvin 
smiled at her as he kissed her repeatedly. In the grey- 
ish white plain, white and smooth to the rim of the 
horizon, were literally millions of shadowy forms. The 
silence seemed broken, if she listened O so carefully, 
by series of gentle vibrations like the beat of a choir of 
humming-bird wings. "That is the audible result of 
celestial love," explained Alvin. "Here on the plain 
of absolute silence and smoothness, the rapturous and 
complete soul-mates meet in one accord like many 
sweet-toned bells." Trix only stood fluttering by his 
side in the mystic waves and billows of all Heaven's 
love. "They are not ready for us yes." Alvin caught 
her up before she could think and they hovered above 
the multitude of lovers. "Oh, but, Alvio, we have 
lost the pulse beat of their loves." "Babe, so I have 
not lost an atom of your love I am happy." He hugged 
and kissed her fondly, then she seemed satisfied. 
Slowly, gently they circled the edges of the frozen 
country ar min arm. Sometimes resting on their backs, 
then changing quickly to the side and floating, floating, 
floating. On and on they drifted among the soft sil- 
very clouds like two white swans on a moonlit lake. 
Then a blare of light shot up from the plain ; they 
were flooded in a million brilliant colors. It seemed 
as if all the rainbows since the beginning of time had 
been broken to bits and flung into that great white 

114 



expanse. It was the electric current that leads to 
Saturn. "They are ready," he whispered. As they 
drifted back in place he told her the whole meaning of 
the event. Here, newly joined soul-mates often give 
thanks ceremoniously for their union, and here perfect- 
ed angels bid adieu to Venus in passing to Holy Sat- 
urn — the golden land of perfect love and happiness. 
"There, we aren't merely on-lookers, we, you and I, 
Alvin, praise God with them for our eternal heavenly 
marriage. We are as happy as they are." His face 
glowed with the love that filled each angel there. Trix 
was still wondering at him and his marvellous beauty. 
Trix thought he was the handsomest man she had 
ever seen. Alvin was considered the most intelligent 
and Christlike soul in Mars. Trix was extremely proud 
of him in every sense of the word. Gracefully and lov- 
ingly they drifted softly through the crowd and many 
smiled kindly at them. When their blue robes dragged 
across a great beaten gold cross which marked the 
exact center of Venus' frozen hemisphere they stopped 
pulsating gently in the prayer that every heart uttered 
for their new union. Trix was lifted out of herself in 
ecstasy, her loosened golden brown hair lowered to the 
cross, as she bent toward Alvin in joy, lost in the first 
big reward of a perfect love. Then Alvin guided her 
from the cross to join the circle of quiet onlookers. 
Trix saw many noted forms glide to the center of 
worship, pause as she and Alvin had done and pass 
on, but her own experience was so overpowering that 
she could not remember, she could not discern who 
they were or what raiment they wore. Alvin roused 
her from the depths of her revery with a kiss on her 
small parted lips. There is to be an unusual event 
take place. An Archangel from Saturn is to claim his 
own, for she although newly arisen from Earth, will 
pass to him after a brief sojourn in Mars." "They 
must be divine." "Partly, my love. So are you.

among the highest Alps. She was all her life a pure 
maiden and prophetess. Neither loved for they had 
never met and they were noble enough to repulse all 
save what God should bring together." "Oh how 
glorious." "They are coming. See, there he is, all

Eternal God head. He stood in profoundest medita-

the planet crept a spark like the flash of a diamond. It 
came swifter, swifter, growing larger as it tore on till 
he clasped her tightly in his arms. The angels were 
silent, not a vibration disturbed the peace till he loos- 
ed his arms and looked deep into her midnight orbs. 
"Thou art come at last." The angel pulsing com- 
menced and together they rose over the great golden 
cross. Jesus guiding them on. He held her closely 
to his panting breast. His mauve robe floated about 
them like a common drapery. In a golden pathway 
of prism lights, her clinging robes looked like jewels 
showered on her from the caskets of angels above her, 
till all could be seen was the glitter of diamonds which 
absolutely covered every portion of her clinging ascen-

burst of music welcomed them and the songs were 
heard even to Mars. A pure and intense white light 
suffused their bodies as they finally disappeared into 
the gloriously tinted rings of Holy Saturn. Alvin in an 
ecstasy of delight caught Trix to him and joyously 
wended his wav back to his children in Mars.
